you have gotten so amazing with your photography. Adding the filters really make a huge difference and make it stand out. I love the movement of the water in this one , the purples are so soft and really make it looks like it moving.
one word fits this..
WOW!

    Hey Diane!

    I was just thinking about you the other day wondering how you were. I'm in Mexico right now in month two of 6 months here. I am happy you are doing well. I haven't been quite as active as I have been in the past here on FAR. I think this is the second thing I have posted this year.

    I REALLY appreciate you review and More than Generous rating. Thank you so much. Mostly though I am so glad to hear from you. Please keep in touch. I did not get a chance to get that card made before leaving for Mexico. I plan to get some made and see what happens. Anyway, take care my special friend and do keep in touch ~ Steve

This is so beautiful, Steve and a great entry for the contest. I like the angle you used for this showing the rocks in the foreground with the water cascading over them. Excellent lighting and focus showing a beautifully clear image. Beautiful colours captured in the sky. Best of luck in the contest. Suzanne

This is so beautiful! I love the colors! The focus is fantastic! The angle of the shot is great! The eye is drawn through the rocks and waves to the lovely sunset! Great job and a pleasure to view! Lori

Comment from Bremi


Nice stop action shot. I can feel the water flowing over the rocks and the hill. Also, the sunset colors make a pleasant contrast to the foreground.

Steve,
A very beautiful sunset over the stormy sea with the sea crashing against the rocky cliffs on the left. The sun glowing through the clouds just above the horizon colouring the sky in shades of orange and gold darker clouds covering part of the sun. The colours in the sky reflected on the sea the sun also lighting up the crashing sea in the foreground. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
Susan

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Cute concise supplemental poem...
Vivid presentation of water in nature in harmonious interaction with the other elements!
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Compact framing.
Vanishing viewpoint lends a greater depth...
Impressive entry. Potential voters choice...

Thanks for sharing...

Man, do you ever have the "eye". This is absolutely beautiful with the bright active sky, even more sea activity and that stoic rocky shore jutting halfway into the scene. Like I said, beautiful. Reasons for my five star vote.

Very beautiful photo. Nice use of filters to create a spectacular sunset over the ocean. Like how the waves change color as they hit the rocks. Robert
