Very nice shot, I do feel that the lighting was almost too low for this shot and takes away from the image to some degree. The clarity and balance in this shot are nice.

Sunsets are always wonderful no matter what time of year. Sometimes dramatic and sometimes calm and soft. This is a calm and soft picture and it has a lovely feel to it as if you were walking barefoot along the sands due to the clever angle and the capture of the waters movement.

This is a very pretty picture of the beach at sunset. The water is calm, and the sunset reflection is lovely. I wonder what that speck is on the left side halfway up. The colors are harmonious and the contrast is good, revealing much detail in the water.

This is a great shot. I would crop it just a bit to reduce focus on the sky, but other than that, it's terrific. It looks to me like something you'd see in one of those motivational posters. Good job!

This is gorgeous, but if you take out that little thing on the beach...it would be perfect. This has awesome dof, colors, details, clarity, and is just beautiful all over..good job.

Hi STEFFI, Thank you so much for your wonderful comments! I love how you stepped into the picture and found the same serenity I did. I felt exactly the way you expressed when I was there....happy and free. I honestly hated to leave I always hope when I take a picture the magic comes through. I'm so glad it did for you. Smiles, helvi :o)

This is a very relaxing scene. The overall colour and lighting have been nicely presented. I like how the sky is reflecting of the water. A wonderful job. Ilsemarie

Nice expansive shoreline photo. The colors are soft and balanced. The curves of the water create nice graphics. A nice composition. It is shot at a very good angle for presentation. Well done. Mcarrera
