    Default Wild Pacific Trail

    The Wild Pacific Trail near Ucluelet, BC starts in dense forest and follows the coastline of the Pacific. I am not sure about the composition of this one. I appreciate any and all comments/critiques. Thank you

    me too Stroke. I love the way the path meanders drawing the eye into the photo and down the path. there's so many shades of green and I love the moss. I wonder though if it could be improved by moving 3 feet to the right.
    Feel free to make comments on any of my shots

    I like it...reminds me of great times camping up there at Green Point Campground. I like the way my eye follows the meandering path into the woods wondering what cool view is lurking around the bend.

    Bambi and Casil. This is a beautiful part of the West Coast. Unfortunately it rains a lot so many of my shots were taken under an umbrella. Casil, I think I saw a photo of yours in Photo News...it was an amazing shot so congrats if it is yours!

    I think Bambi has the right idea. Seems like the moss and the path both want to be the focal point, so neither of them is, and you're left without one. I did a quick crop to see if that made a difference. This isn't the definitive answer/crop by any means, but I hope it's a starting point for trying for a different balance of elements.

    Thanks Saltair..it was mine. I am originally from Victoria so I know what you mean about the rain....I get back to the Island at least a couple of times a year to visit the family.
    Every time we went camping in Tofino though we managed to avoid the rain...one year we went was a couple weeks prior to them running out of water...I remember the news saying that they had to cancel a bunch of weddings at the higher end hotels as it was that critical.

    FWIW...I like the original uncropped version as posted by the OP.
