Comment from Barb Baker
This is abslolutely stunning!! It ia like a fine painting and should be in the finest of galleries if it were! Love all of the color variations. The waves are gorgeous with the suns reflection on them. I cannot say a thing negative about this piece.

Lovely golden hour composition. The colors are great. Lots of action in the falls water. Nice cloud color. I like your introduction to the image. Well done

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Fantabulous dramatic capture!

Excellent choice of subject.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...

Dynamic image of waves curling down that barrier & and continue rolling to a lower grounds..
Sharply focused.
Subtle illumination with soft highlights & faint shadows.

Good perspective & long depth of field...
Best of luck in the contest!

Thanks for sharing...

Comment from Sean T Phelan
Yep!
Salt water ( Normal Saline )
is 'in the blood' and it's the essence of living ( and dead ) animal ( and plant ) tissue but I'm not sure about that 'soul' business,Steve! : )
That's a really attractive scene that you've presented us with here,my friend!
'Good Show'!

Thanks Sean. A body with a soul? A soul with a body? What is the 'essence'? The 'spark' that takes tissue, and all components (simply clusters of inert atoms) and creates "Life". Heck if I know. Thanks Sean for the review and comments ~ Steve

This is just lovely. The setting sun reflected in the cascading waves and the beautiful sunset sky are just wondrous in their exquisite beauty. A very spiritual composition.
