It's spectacular; the soft blur of the water wave gives the sensation of motion and the blue-green color is so serene and calm; very nice seascape.

That's a fantastic shot with a highly original story. The focus is good and the presentation is well chosen. The colors are good.

Thank you very much. Sorry lover is impossible in this situation. I was in the water camera about 2 feet [ca 61 cm] above ground. The waves came in about 3 feet [ca 91 cm]. One shouts in consideration with the delay time of the camera before the wave is on the point wanted, than race the camera over head. Who want a drowned camera? The camera gets already splattered with drops and need to be dried after each shot.

Comments: Nice picture. Nicely cropped. It appears that it is just a little out of focus. Good DOF. You have done a nice job in composing this picture. I am deeply disappointed that you have not included any artist information pictures. The artist information includes hints as how you set the shoot up and composed it. It also includes camera settings to include the camera name and model as well as what lens you used. The camera settings would include information like aperture settings, Shutter speed, ISO settings, and what lens settings you used. This is important information for you to because as you understand camera settings your keeper rate will go way up. It is important to us because it shows us how you get the great shots and gives us hints as to why we could become great photographers as well. I regret that I do not have any five and a half stars left.

Thank you very much for you accommodating review. Don't worry about the stars,I appreciate the toughts. Nevertheless I am slightly disappointed since you criticize my notes. Did you read them? I have included all information including the camera settings you write about. I am forbidden to include any more. This is a post in a blind contest any further information about the concrete location and special situation as any information about my person would be against the rules by compromising my incognito.
You are right. The wave is a little to much to the left. To find a focal point is complicate in this situation. Since I stay basically in the water on a point shortly after land under [incoming tide!] it is impossible to use a tripod. The camera is handheld in low position about 2 feet [ca. 61cm] above ground. The waves are about 3 feet [ca. 91cm]. Everything is timing. You have to focus [It's a guess based on the experience of behavior of waves] before the wave comes in. These waves are faster than the delay on the camera. So everything is timing. After clicking the shutter you have to race the camera immediately over head. Who like a drowned camera? The camera has to be cleaned after each shot since it got splatters most the time. A technique I usually warn people to use if I am not incognito.

Your welcome.
Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
This is an interesting shot. The angle of the shot with the waves coming in makes it an interesting viewing. Fine composition, soft colours and very good light makes this first rate.

I really like this image.
the greens of the ocean, the tans of the sand, the texture of the shells at the sea shore, the blue sky all make a very pleasing image.
As much as I like this, I'm wondering what it would look like if you either reduced exposure or changed the black point of the image. It might make the colors a bit richer/deeper but otherwise I really like ot.

Yes, it makes the colors richer and deeper. It would luck beautiful; but it would not look as the situation at this place at this time anymore. These pastel colors are exactly as they were on this special morning. I appreciate your kind review and toughts and your input very much. Thank you.
