This is my first ever square photograph. I've been confused but also fascinated by square photographs. I really don't understand where it's come from and the main reason for it? or is it literally just an interesting new format for your pictures?!

 

I love this picture, cropped from a larger wide angle shot, it gives it a much more powerful yet simplistic style. The island in the background was in the perfect place to balance the sun on the right. I have split toned this, with orange and blues to give it a hot look for the sun and a cool look for the sea. I think the effect has worked brilliantly.

 

Please let me know what you think, any ideas and critique, and also anything you like/know about square photos!!

 

Thanks :)
