Where did you ever find a painting of the tidal pool? I would love to have that minus the ring and lettering to hang in the house. Not that I don't like the ring and lettering

Cool how the gold gradient emulates the sunrise effect...
I like it sans question mark. More aligned with the mood and tone of the scene whence it came.

and no quote marks makes it more of a theme. artlike... rather than perfunctory copy thrown onto a b.g.

I like this, but i think a brighter picture overall would work better. The original shot was excellent!

Might be a bit off-topic, but ...
WHERE DOES the sun rise, actually?
I know, it usually rises in the west, but is this left or right of Rabbit Island, seen from the tidal pool beach?
Or does it travel in the course of the year? Or does it depend on where exactly on the beach you are (but in comparison to the space you have to shift on the tidal pool section of the beach, the island should not be that small to actually allow for this relatively wide range in sunrise points to make it appear fully right or left of the sunrise - or is it?)
The thought just struck me when looking at these pictures ...

Not me, I don't have those skillz. You've been doing a great job!

Just providing a little input from someone in the printing industry.

Great idea, and well done!
I would drop the "Magnum P.I." and just leave the quote and the cross.
Magnum fans will know immediately what it is, and those that don't won't care.

Just my 2 cents...

hmmm. interesting option. but for me, I am proud of magnum pi and attribution is a strong point with me...

As a graphics professional for decades... (kinda sorta) I am by now, cognizant of my limitations, (colorblindness for one) and will always defer to the Printer's wisdom! mahalos!

Thanks, Braddah - always good to know a local connection. Whenever you get around to it... no hurry, just curiosity.
