HI Janice, I definitely can see why you won the blue contest! Love the intensity of both the sky and the water. I also love the softness on the horizon. You even have shaded of blur on the beach. Very cool and lovely to look at. Great focus and lighting really let us enjoy the scene. Beautiful work! Congratulations on your win! :o) Nancy

Wow! A grand spectacle of the sea, a mesmerizing dance of light and water as the sun takes its bow.You framed it well, and the light, shadows, colours, and composition worked well. Good luck!

Well, this shot certainly meets the contest criteria Janice.

Camera technique is spot perfect. I see a deep DOF with excellent focus all the way to the horizon, nice work.

You picked a perfect time to be out and about with camera in hand. The lighting is fantastic and begs to be captured.

Good luck in the contest... Bob

This is a wonderful photo that captures the full spectrum of blue and light blue colors! Very beautiful! I especially like the horizon line, how clearly it provides a transition from yellowish green to bright blue and deep blue. Gorgeous!

Janice, You have done a fine job capturing the blue sea and sky. It definitely was the right time of day the sun is low and the shadows are long. Very nice and the best of luck in the contest. Ray

A very good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and classical composition grants us an enjoyable view of your beautiful location. Like that curving coastline and the blues. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Such a refreshing scene of this blue ocean. This is a great entry. I like the angle that you use even showing the lines of the shore, those tiny tides, and markings in the sand. Lighting and focus are also superb and your horizon is pretty levelled. A joy to view.
