This is magnificent beach setting photography that you have produced. I am always amazed at how clearly detailed your pictures are. I really admire how much the massive clouds in the sky resembles the sweeping waves and voluminous tide of the water.

The waves seem have the intention to look like the mountains in the background and the clouds seem to resemble the waves cashing onto the beach below.. The white below gleams almost to much which causes some leak of detail, but it works well with the clouds above and emphasizes the blue of the sea. The photo has interesting depth and motion and is well balanced.

This is lovely and really well presented. Love the moodiness of the sea, the detail in the waves breaking against the very white sand and the mountains in the background give it great depth. Thank you for sharing.

A very nice view. The mountains across the bay make a great background for that breaking wave. I like the diagonal breaking water and the subtle colors.

Comment from Dan Hancock


very nice image. you have caught the wave breaking, while at the same time providing a sense of movement. Color id generally good with thew exception of the lower left hand corner which is a bit "hot". In post-production this can be darkened and I think would enhance the image. Nice Photograph.

A very nice seascape photo posted here! Your fine and traditional composition provides us with a very enjoyable look at your beautiful location. Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely done!

a beautiful seascape with the crushing rolling wave taken with sharp focus; not really my kind of beach: I prefer calm sea and some coconuts on the beach; I'm shivering when I imagine the temperature..

What a beautiful capture. The foam on the land area reminds me of snow. Wave action is great and handled well. I like the long distance view into the distant mountains and cloud filled sky.
