Hi Tony,
Nice and refreshing landscape framed bwtween the rocks, well exposed on the waves highlights, due to the dark sand they get eveen stronger.
Have a nice day JY

Such beautiful colours there. The sea is really emerald green. I like very much the sand and the reflections on the thin layer of water on top of it. Very nice.

snunney (33988) 2008-04-08 0:38

Hello Tony,
A very pretty seascape with beautiful light and tones. I like the view out to sea through these massive rocks whilst the rocky outcrop in the foreground helps lead the viewer into the scene. Superb clarity.

bakes888 (18055) 2008-04-08 1:08

Hi Tony. This is most definitely a wonderful view and true NZ colours also. I love the patterns in the sand and the framing by the rocky outcrops. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Stunning place Tony, well captured with the rocks on either side and the energy in the water

Hello Tony,
Very beautiful, sharp & colourful scene, I like the little white cloud on the horizon, the reflection on low water in FG & the rock (grotto) on the left. All in all a very pleasant scene on worth looking at.
Thanks
Santo

Truja (4948) 2008-04-08 3:31

Hi Tony,

Hello Tony,
another one of your seascape masterpiece!
And judging from the shades it seems taken in the hot hours.
That contradicts the "rule" about not shooting pictures in the mid hours... is there no haze in NZ at that time?
All my pictures taken by the sea at that hours suffer from a unavoidable haze... or is there a trick I don't know?
My best compliments,
with envy,
Donato

Hellas (5089) 2008-04-08 3:54

Hello Tonny,
beautiful and saturated colours in a well created frame is your post, today! The vast horizon is amazing! A wide opened window to the sea!
Regards,
Athanasios.

westozman (2863) 2008-04-08 4:15

G'day Tony!
This shot (and the rest of your superb gallery) simply make me want to hop on a jet & come on over to NZ! (I've seen the S Island 3 times, but not yet the North). You are the benchmark for anyone wanting to see how the S5 IS performs - excellent work.
Regards,
Jeff

cfreire (11635) 2008-04-08 4:50

Hello Tony. Excellent high angle capture with the shadow in the fg works well on the clear water putting the two rocks as the frame. The sea is stunning green with beautiful horizon below the blue sky. Well done and have a nice day. Jusni

Hi Tony

Back to marvel with sites like this, lush beauty of the natural marine.

The shades of the sea, combined with the sky, are spectacular in the depth that is detailed. The rock formations at your sides, highlighting proper composition and framing. Congratulations, friend.

John

UnTrained (0) 2008-04-09 22:52

Hi Tony,
that play of waves around the small rock in the middle framed by the two at the sides is well done. The good light and the lovely green of the water (emerald green) is just at the right point.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Miha2ou7 (4887) 2008-04-09 23:36

josepmarin (33571) 2008-04-11 10:04

Hi Tony,
You have chosen a good setting, with the rocks to the sides of the frame, to create an interesting effect of window where we can enjoy the beauty of the sea and the sky, and the dynamism of the foam of the waves.
Excellent graphism, great light and beautiful color.
Friendly regards,
Josep

zmey (7242) 2008-04-11 13:42

hello tony

soothing sight... especially here; now... sitting in a mid-west office while the elements are painting winter behind the window... :)) the turquoise water does tricky things to my mind. beautiful place and beautiful rendition of it. i like how you have included the calm-water mirror in the foregaround.

with kind regards,
kristaps

ChrisJ (69430) 2008-04-12 1:49

Hi Ho

Wonderful curves along the shoreline, with perfect colour, saturation & sharpness. Good reflections in the fg rockpool, & the 2 cliffs frame the scene well. Tfs!

gunbud (27515) 2008-04-12 19:46

Hello Tony,
The strikingly beautiful turquoise sea is wonderfully framed by the rugged little breaker islands as we look towards the distant horizon and beautiful blue sky. Great clarity, details and sharpness to this lovely ocean landscape.
Regards, Tom

JCG (24783) 2008-04-14 22:15

Hi Tony,

The quality and the smoothness of the image are superb, I like much. The contrast of the natural colors are very pleasant, in particular between this black sand and the green emerald of the sea. A photograph which gives pleasure, thank you Tony.

With all my friendships and with soon,

Jean-Charles

Hi!
what a beautiful view of the ocean!! Waves change water colors, and I like perspective through the rocks. How far is your country from mine! and how beautiful.

A beautifull sea color wih a point of green, perfectly matching the blue sky. I also like the rocks on both side to channel the sight toward the horizon.

All the best,
