[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The power of the sea against the hardness of the rocks, when it's high-tide, huge waves come rolling to the beaches and rocks, it's always a great scene to see nature in this action.

Here you see St. Ouen's Bay from Corbière Point. Behind me, a lighthouse is situated and there is a possibility to walk with low-tide.
I will show the lighthouse later.

waters waves digging / sculting the rock ..
.. let time design ours coasts

Water is always more persistent and strong than the rocks. Good capture of the action of the waves. Well done Hans. Congrats.

Une vue superbe de cette vague qui vient frapper ces rochers (ils n'ont pourtant rien fait !), et qui se transforme en une gerbe d'écume vengeresse !
Une très belle prise de vue Hans.
Merci.

In the right moment...nice photo efect, no doubt!
Agreable final result. Light and colors are great.
Well done and seen Hans!

Spoony.

Hans, ik heb regelmatig geprobeerd opspattend water te fotograferen en is o zo moeilijk, ware het niet dat deze foto, zeer goed geslaagd is. De bruine rotsen en het blauwe water, en de witte tornado daarbij geven een mooi overzicht, mooi werk opnieuw!

Bravo Hans dat je de snel bewegende watermoleculen zo goed in beeld hebt kunnen brengen. Het is goed gepresenteerd het geeft ook echt het gevoel dat het er hard aan toe gaat. Misschien een beetje meer lucht, maar da's een persoonlijk gevoel.

Nice one Hans. The crushing waves makes a lot of action here. Tight, well made compo.

Ahh, this water looks so fresh and powerful. The contrast to the brown stones are very good. The high horizon works very well here. Very good shot, Hans. Thanks for posting.

I can almost smell the sea.. Nice light, vivid colors, very refreshing.

I like your shot, you captured the fury of water hitting these rocks. The form of these rocks worked by the sea is well rendered. The picture has a good depth and we can see the waves in formation.

Nice work Hans and thanks for sharing.

Tres beau cliché,Hans, avec cette vague qui s'éclate contre ces rochers à la couleur étonnante.Bien vu ce petit bout de ciel,qui donne tout le champ à l'action des flôts.Phil

Great spray and rocks shot - 'Oh I do like to be beside the seaside' :)

wouhh belle écume...bon rendu super nette...les couleurs sont tres belles...la mer en pleine action...toujours très beau a voir.. le mélange de la mer et d'un peu de ciel est du plus bel effet...bravo...amitiés BI

De très belles couleurs pour cette mer en mouvement, du beau travail, hans.
Amitié.

Beau moment, prise bien captée Hans. Jolies perles d'eau qui s'élèvent ainsi. Nice shot.

Great photo! I'm going to go look for the lighthouse, I hope you posted it. It has a nice 3D feel to it.

J'apprécie beaucoup de voir la mer agitée, cela me fascine.
Il vous était possible aussi de faire un léger contre-jour pour obtenir un effet qui donne un peu plus de relief.
Cette photo me rappelle aussi les rochers du Lands End en Cornouaille Anglaise.

I appreciate much to see the rough sea, that fascine me. It was possible for you also to make a light back-light to obtain an effect which gives a little more relief. This picture reminds me the Lands End rocks in British Cornwall.
