Fantastic image Chris. Not a bad place to be in the world going by this image.

 

[Pete Askew]

Lovely colours there Chris and the effect of the WA on the sand is nice.

 

[Tom Dunne]

What's very appealing is the gentle line of surf as it snakes it's way up through the image until it slowly disappears. Pete mentioned the effect on the sand but it is also mirrored, to some extent, in the sky. Gold and Blue, how compatible they look here. Chris, excuse my ignorance but what is that shape in the foreground; it appears to have created a nest for itself in the sand.

Thanks Julian - it has it's upsides!

Thanks Pete - I was excited when I say the effect the WA had pulling the perspective in the sky - could't get enough of it yesterday - The sand has tiny specks of black and gold (as in the metal) in it - very cool

Thanks Tom - the foreground object is a really well weathered rock, park of a group that fell into the sea from a cliff a few years back

great photo, love the crazy rock with the crazy hair in the foreground and clouds mirroring it in the sky. beautiful tones and colors.
