An unusual way to present a seascaoe. It works well with the varying shades creating horizontal definitions in both the calm sea, the distant waves and the sky, sun and clouds. There is a soft dreaminess about is that is soothing and very calming.

This is a very nice job and a very unique take on this sunset. We get so used to seeing them in vivid color but this is amazing in black and white. Thank you for sharing.

A lovely shot with all the shades of grey that you could want in a single shot. I like the way you have composed this with the whole dark to light feeling that traverses the image. Nicely done.

A very interesting and unique visual of this sunset. I love your use of black and white which draws the eye to the reflection off the water. Beautiful and creative!!

Wow! What stands out to me is the attention to light â€" the highlights and shadows create a striking contrast that gives the shot its soul. Well done!

This is and interesting shot of a sunset in black and white, an unusual presentation of a sunset. However, this view is interesting as the focus is now on the brightness of the setting sun illuminated in the water rather than the colors. A clever variation on a theme.

Another good looking nature image presented here! Your fine and classical composition gives us an enjoyable view of that lovely dusk coastline. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

Jirina this is an amazing capture of a powerful sunset off the Oregon coast. I love the rows of waves and the wash of the latest wave. The reflection is superb. I like the way the sun is slipping behind the big cloud. Very nice Jirina. Ray
