Make it an ad
Okay, the "Challenge" here is to make this photo a full page ad that may appear in a travel magazine. Pump up the colors? Add a hotel logo? View of the rooms or other accommodations/amenities. Write the romance copy, come up with a tag line. You are the Madison Avenue creative department on this one.

Since I have to do this kind of thing every day, I'd love to see what the creative minds around here might come up with.

LOL, Oltenius! Perhaps your ad is for a ladies magazine?

I had to take a crack at it :-)
I wasn't excited about keeping the feet...
I had a hard time with the shadows... couldn't get ( regardless what I did...) the correct perspective...

But here it is.

Frank, Absolutly Wonderful! The shadows are perfect and the lens flare just the right touch. The Azore Convention and Visitor's Bureau would buy it in a heart beat!

Klassy... great idea. But I have a need to know, do "real" men have pedicures?

Oltenius, good compositing! Especially like the hand in the sand.

Nancy, I'd love to explore your technique for fixing the skin tones on the legs! Care to share?

Swampy, nothing special, just a layer set to 'color' and masked in the icelolly.com logo
