Hello Thomas,

I like the atmosphere, as the forces of the surf is well captured!
The backlight adds to my experience of the scene, a ell balanced composition with fine details...
The touch of fresh green adds welcome colour contrast!

Bravo Thomas
Love the composition of this capture. Sand, waves, jaggard small bare rock outcrop and a nice soft cloudy sky. Great POV. Sharpness is of very good quality.
Congratulations on a good shot.

Hello Thomas.
Thanks for your kind comments on my photos.
It is good to see these lovely photos of the Breton coast. I have fond memories of my holiday in that region two years ago, and I would love to return.
This photo has a superb sharpness and yet it presents the haze beautifully. The back-lighting is superbly handled. The foam on the waves and the detail in the rock are so well caught. Beautiful soft colour tones in the sky and that wave has a marvellous green through it. Just a superb coastal view, which deserves much more recognition from the TE members.
Well done.
Best wishes from 'Downunder'.
Andrew
