Dwayne,

The take-home lesson from your work is that you expose well from the darks to the highlights. Without that, one lacks a robust file to perfect the image for delivery. Here, as usual I'm impressed with your delicate respect for nature, in a larger print, we'll imagine the sounds as the waves wash over those surf-smoothed foreground rocks.

The clouds are well imaged as are the water and rocks. The sweep of cloud on the upper left brings us down to a rust-tinged rock giving us some special foreground interest. Bright light shine through a patch of sky adding to this understated effect. Of course, any of these features can, (like much of your work), beguile us us in further processing and to good effect. I'm certain that the print from this will have outstanding presence. I have no suggestions for changing a single thing. Any minor issue will be solved when you print.

Could it be improved? Well it could be different and wider. Would that be better? I don't know.

Asher

Is this one exposure?

Thank you very much for the comments Asher ! Yep one exposure and no tripod, just
the camera sitting on the ground and use of the self timer.

Take care,

Dwayne Oakes
