Path to the Beach (Digitally Edited Photo)

Path to the Beach (Digitally Edited Photo) Originally uploaded by randubnick

This image began as another of the photos I took during last week's early morning walk at Lynch Park Beach here in Beverly. I liked the way the sandy path looked in the morning light, so I took some pictures with my phonecam. When I cropped the image, I noticed some distracting marks in the sand and the grass, as well as a white boat in the ocean that was positioned in a way that spoiled the line of the blue and yellow boats on the path. So tonight I opened the image in Painter IX and used digital pastel to eliminate the distractions. Now the little boat has disappeared and the path to the beach is clear.
