Congratulations Very good work!

Hi Robert,

First thing that I've noticed, it's that deep pinkish patch in the left upper corner. Really striking detail against the bold clouds.

Then I was attracted to the pulling power of those waves, suggesting more than movement, rather force of nature.

It's difficult to critique a photo when you aren't aware about the conditions, but I wonder if by moving your camera a bit to the right and closer to the rock, you would have been able to allow more space for the sky and to avoid placing the horizon straight in the middle.

In certain situation, I don't hesitate to center my horizon either and to "break the rule", if the elements in the frame impose such a decision, so maybe you have your set of considerations. Maybe you want to share your thinking about it.

Anyway, I can't deny the impact your photo had on me, as it is an instant eye-catcher.

Cheers!

André

P.S.: I bet that the couple hanging on the pier took a photo of you...

P.S.2: Another case of wet shoes and pants, up to the knees...

Hi Robert

Forgive you? What for? THIS is photography!!!
A jewel for the colors, the textures, the greatly mastered composition. What a dramatic atmosphere, and a surrealistic feeling with two mouvements of different music, in the sky and in the water! Yes, a marvellous symphony of the elements!
I am amazed to discover your gallery only now...I must come back again!
Congratulations
Regards
Marine

Hello Robert,
The exposure time creates a spectacular effect on the surface of the sea. The composition leads a lot of depth in the photo. The sky is spectacular, colors are magnificent. Bravo.
Good night.
Cordially

Hi Robert

You have caught the water in motion, running at your feet, legs and more, the sharp pier and the 2 "tourists" and the red impact of the glorious clouds.
For once, the skyline at the half of the picture is not a nonsense.
Well thought and realised.

Dag Robert,

Precies we volgen de wind ik denk dat hier niet het water maar het zand een belanrijke rol speelt, of ben ik dan toch verkeerd.
De pier gebruikt u perfect voor een diepte te creëren, de twee mensen zijn wel een beetje gezandstraalt waar ze staan.
We zijn het beiden overeens half/half kan zeker mooi zijn.
Goed foto werk, bedankt.

Groeten,
John.

Hello Robert,

This is a breath taking view of the sea which looks very powerful and dynamic. I like the palish white color of the sea against the cloudy pinkosh ptch in the sky. A very spectacular composition with lots of depth.

Good morning Robert,
fascinating the view of the image with the red on the left of the scene to makes the different.I like the use of the low shutter speed with the foreground waters to looks as the clouds from the sky to come down and to have been spread on the surface of the sea.The railings on the pier adds depth in the image.

Have a good weekend,danos

HI Robert,
love the reddish streak of cloud in the corner! And the receding wave gives lots of dynamics and perspective here.

Hello Robert, Another outstanding image, all class. It reminds me of a Ansel Adams quote I read the other day "Simply look with perceptive eyes at the world about you, and trust to your own reactions and convictions. Ask yourself: "Does this subject move me to feel, think and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own personal statement of what I feel and want to convey" I believe that you have done that here, the result is stunning. Sincere compliments
Santo

Hi Robert
its always a joy to view your gallery, i know i'll be viewing a high quality image of some sort.
And this one didn't disappoint me :)
the long exposure certainly gives movement along the bottom, while in contrast the clouds have moved little.
the walkway breaks up the almost identical top/bottom surfaces.
well done!
cheers

Hi Robert
Another beautiful beachscape. The sky colours and effect of the water is so mesmerising.
Wonderful atmosphere, good exposure controlled with nice light management.
The tone of the sky here is most attractive with wonderful warm red to balance the landscape
Great shot my friend
