This has such gorgeous color tones and light. The waves are captured so nicely. The image closely resembles a painting with all the rich shadows and colors. I especially like how the light is cast onto the rocks and draws out the detail of the textures so well.

Comment from Neilnap773


stunning palette with some delicious hues of reds,oranges and yellow and to help the enhancement of such beaty you have included some dark silhouettes of the rocks in the foreground that invited the viewer to reach in and feel the waters..its cleverly structured to allow this perception

Comment from cleo85


The sky colors and the reflections in the water are very impressive. How the waves pound onto the rocks is intriguing. The movement of the waves is an interesting contradiction to the unmoving rock formation. The dark rock formation, resembles a semi-framing at the left, which amplifies the impressive colors. The filters ad a painterly appearance without hiding the photo-origin of the seascape.

Steve, a very masterful piece with plenty of great tones and I believe God aims your hand for such a beautiful sight.

Colors are off the chain crazy and perfect.

LOVE the action of the waves and the deep sunset colors.

I may have to switch up my Iphone 5 to the 7 :)
