    Very many thanks for your kind review! I used to jog along that beautiful coastline for many years in the 80?s after work.

Really cool picture of the large sand dunes. The picture captures all the intricate details such as the grooves and bumps of it.The skies are also very beautiful.

Great photograph of the natural coast framed by unique tall dunes. The people in the background are a wonderful point of reference .
The presentation is so nice to view.

A very interesting and unique visual presented here of these dudes. I love how the shore seems to go for miles. Composition shades, tones, and colours and textures are very well done. Thank you for sharing.

Nik,
A beautiful picture of the ten people & two dogs walking along the tide line at the base of the Sand dunes on Formby beach. The overcast sky threatens rain. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

This is a beautiful shot of the dunes. You have framed it well, and the focus, clarity, light, and composition work well. Good effort!

Are the sand dunes on the other side of these cliffs? A beautiful landscape photograph of a very rugged coastline. Not much space between the ocean and the cliffs if the tide turns!! Good luck in the contest.

    Very many thanks for your kind review! They are not cliffs, but sand dunes!! They form a huge region along the coast and inland too.

I wouldn't want to get caught down on the beach when the tide comes in Nik.

A fine exposure with a long DOF. The people are seen but do not take away from the magnitude of the scene.

Well framed with a great diminishing perspective down the beach.

Color palette is on the cool side and heightens the drama of the scene.

Well done... Bob

Really cool dramatic landscape, nice sharpness. I like the people in the background for a sense of scale.

I am a stickler for balance in a photo (at least mine). At first glance this could appear to be off balance to the left. But after looking at I think the cool colors on the right offer a balance to the large, but warm colors, of the cliff. So, well done.

Comment from suffolkbrian


The cliff looks dramatic in this and just enough sea to add to it,think i might have had the people a bit more prominent only because they are a bit tiny in this,but other people might say it does not matter as its the cliff is the main focus,guess we all have different views on photos[no bad thing]...Brian
