Hi Tony,
a bright and sunny capture for a good start into the new year. Well done with the good POV and contrasts. The large area of foam is pretty and gets much from the open view.
A Happy 2008, Ulf

Hello Tony,
A very good perspective along these cliffs covered with vegetation. I like the vegetation used as foreground framing and the horizon is perfectly placed. Excellent colours and clarity. A very Happy New Year to you and yours.

Hi Tony,
You have framed the beauty of this coastline well with the FG foliage, the curve of the sea and the cliffs dropping to the ocean Detail is excellent and you managed the light well to avoid OE. It does seem to have a greenish cast, I tried a WS. Let me know what you think,
Wishing you health, love & joy in the coming year,

Hola Tony,
Go well the first days of the year,mi friend?
The photography is excellent, with great blue colors and green, they are fantastic. The movement of the waves gives an excellent dynamism to the image, magician effect in serpent form. And again, you have reflected that atmosphere of solitude and so enviable tranquillity.
Bravo, great work Tony!
Cheers, Jordi

Hello Tony,
The white surf lapping on the beautiful beach makes a wonderful dividing line between the turquoise sea and the lovely lush green hills and moss covered beach. The color are wonderfully clear and crisp with marvelous details to this grand landscape.

Amazing to know that Auckland has such a good range of mild temperatures in summer and winter, Tony. And a great place for photography.
This is a great viewpoint of my favourite elements - rocks, trees, water and sky. Lovely shot. TFS

G'Day Tony,
This is a delightful shot. The colours are very vibrant and remind me of my visit to the Auckland area; it must be a wonderful place to live. I like the use of the New Zealand flax plants in the FG. This photo focuses well on those towering sea cliffs, sculpted by the ocean breeze. You were lucky to have exceptional weather on this day, hope you were able to have a swim. I like the inclusion of the houses; it shows you how big those cliffs are. I would love to explore that coastline. A great job, thanks for sharing this one with us!

Hello Tony,
like greeting from the Paradise! The fresh green mount and the deep blue sea with much white foams are in a perfect harmony - as things in the Paradise should be.

Hi Tony and Happy New Year (better late than ever)!
Beautiful landscape, great composition, POV and perspective, great exposure but I think that there's something wrong in the White Balance, it seems to me that there's a green cast spread all over. It might be just my idea, I am not sure because I am not sitting before my computer, but anyway, besides that it's a great shot!
Best regards,
Hercules

Hi, Tony --
Gorgeous seascape here. I love those lush greens, the great sweep of shoreline you show us, the foam on the waves, the form of the cliffs, the foreground plants for perspective. Very well done.
Happy New Year,

Oh, my word, Tony!
Another of your masterful landscapes! I love the foliage framing the foreground and the way the cliffs curve around to the left. The colors are simply perfect. I can't even imagine what it must be like to live in one of those houses atop the cliffs. Just marvelous!! Many thanks and warmest regards,
Shelly

I have just decided. New Zealand is the place to go if I have only one choice. A haven for adventure and outdoor photography. I believe you know the adjectives of this work of yours Gracious. Enough from me to say, wish I was there to get this.
