             Winner PDI - Set (Intermediate) Morning Cardio by Charles Booysen (21). You cleverly spotted this scene
             and gave an interesting interpretation to the set subject. The reflection of the beach huts adds an extra di-
             mension. The bright skies draw your eyes away and your image would be improved by cropping most of the
             sky just above the low clouds. A crop to the end of the stairs on the right, lifting the shadows on the beach
             huts, pulling the highlights down and increasing the exposure will make your image truly pop!.
