Photographer's Note
Windy day on the eastern coast of Malta.
Camera is much worse than own eyes on catching contrasts on grey weather. For this reason I've used unsharp mask and contrast adjustments more than usually to show details more clearly.

Hi Kari,
Something else that sunny Malta as a perfect tourist destination. Bad weather is always difficult to photograph, not easy to catch the real essence of being there with strong winds and try to put the force of nature on the sensor. Timing is crucial and therefor this is not bad at all. The water bouncing the rocks, the dark grey clouds on top, it really enhance the bad weather feeling...
Regards, Henk

Hello Kari,
I like these waves :) and it's so difficult to capture them when they move so quickly! I like the dynamic moment. Interesting view in the background. Good idea to increase the contrast and sharpen the picture. The dark low clouds at the top look quite menacing; and yet, even with this mood the image is attractive.
kind regards,
Elena

Hi Kari,
Wonderful coastal scene with dramatic surf crashing on the solid rock beach.
The grey storm clouds give this one a brooding appeal.

Bonjour Kari,
Merci pour la visite qui me permet de re-découvrir cette ile de Malte que j'ai beaucoup appréciée lors de mon dernier séjour!
J'avais notamment aimé les couleurs des maisons qui sont bien mises en valeur dans cette intéressante composition.
Amicalement
Jean-Luc
