Hello Tony,
A lovely composition of this beautiful bay. Great point of view under a superb light. I like the damp sand and its subtle patterns. Excellent clarity.

Hi Tony,
I just will go there and sit down for an hour or so. :-)
Thanks for this one, clear, sharp and a very lovely view. The line of the small hills is a great background.

Yest again, the rich colours are most attractive. I like how the wave provides a strong diagonal in the shot and as always, the sharpness is perfect. A beautiful image.

Hi Tony,
Indeed it is a perfect day! The retreating surf is seen taking on the reflection of the lush green hills and the vivid blue sky. The turquoise sea and white surf contrast beautifully with the lush green vegetation.

Hello Tony,
here I very much like how the clouds are balanced by the waves giving at the same time an interesting simmetry: horizontally the rocks and diagonally the white clouds/waves. Very effectual, indeed.
Have a good Easter!

Hi Tony,
The setting is perfect to be able to see the beauty of this wild, so green and rocky coast, and with a magnificent desert beach.
The scene is very well balanced in the composition, and has a great work of exposure and of quality of image and of colors.
Nice shot.
Best regards, and Happy Easter for you and your family.

Hello Tony,
You have very beautiful landscapes. I would all like it for a favourite. The sea and the place are wonderful. Very good sharp picture. Good POV. I like the sea very much. There is a lake on Hungary Balaton. It is the Hungarian sea. There is a picture in my gallery from Balaton. Congratulations.
Happy Easter to you !
Regards, Zsú

Hi Tony

An Overview simple, but well-defined with your lens.

Depth takes us through the beach towards this whole rocky and full of nature. The shades very well made, despite the great lighting which it is given. No doubt that your country is a wonderful land of beauty

Hi Tony,

Marvellous lights and natural colors on this photograph. Here on Versailles, it rains this morning and this superb marine landscape makes me good. I like much the balance of the image and these long waves give a beautiful effect of depth. Splendid and pleasant photograph, thank you Tony.
