Hi Allister,

Welcome on TE!

A fairytale shot, only this one haven't been generated by CGI... It's the real thing!

Very stunning landscape shot at a great moment.

Beautiful!

Hello Alister ,
Seeing the thumbmail , I thought that i was a picture from the Picos de Europa ! But with the very , very long exposure , the sea looks like mist ! The result is fantastic , far from the reality , of course , but this is your choice . Anf you do it with great technical and artistic skills . The blue tonalities are wonderful , too .
Congratulations .
PS . I want to go to Asturias shortly . This is not exactly the kind of pictures that gives me the wish to go there . But this is absolutly marvellous .

Hi Alister
back to you
Your 2nd post is excellent as well
I like this surrealistic mood with all this blue cast and the rocks popping out of the sea as if they were mountain peaks surrounded by the fog
well done
best regards

Hello Alister

Wow! I would not want to go sailing near those rocks. I like the colours and the atmosphere you have created.

Best wishes

Hello Alister - What a great capture of light. I love the contrast between the jagged rocks and the soft misty ocean. There is a good richness of colour too! Best regards and welcome to TE Rosemary

hello Alister

First of all, welcome on this photographic site!
this second post is better than the previous by its close sharp view of the rocks, and the foamy aspect of the waves you got by a long exposure.
Congratulations
CLODO

Hi Alister
Wonderful picture, the long exposure give great effect to water like clouds under summit of mountains. Blue color is magnificent. Very great shot. Congratulations and welcome in TE.

another great shot, Alister, the rugged rocks create fascinating contrast with the smoke-like water, the result is simply stunning. and once again you offer example that "less is more" - no need for hundreds of different things to create a powerful photo. excellent work, my compliments.

regards,
Kristine

Bonsoir Alister
I love how you framed these rocks. Love also the effect of a low speed on the waves at the base of the rocks.
Bravo
Chris
