Hi David,
It doesn't happen very often, but this picture has rendered me speechless! A totally awesome spectacle, it looks like someone has painted it in liquid gold...the colours are simply stunning and the idea is groundbreaking! These Canon L lenses take some beating. Need I say more? A fitting tribute for your 200th posting. Here's to the next double century!! Best wishes, Vicky

Hey David!

Happy 200th!, You don't look a day over 100 ;-) Haha

Great looking shot, ominously dark features with golden sunlit highlights. Nice detail, a level horizon (important) and appealing composition.

Look forward to seeing your next 200 David!

Hello David,

Wow, 200 already! Amazing 200th posting, I'd say. I love the colours and the way the sunrays peak through the clouds. The wet cliffs/rocks to the side are amazing as well as the wet sand. It almost doesn't look real. Great composition with beautiful details and stunning colours! Excellent work, David!

Greetings,
Ann

Hi David,
Belated congratulations on your 200th posting on TE. You certainly chose a fine shot to commemorate the occasion. The varying gradations of light and hue here mesmerize the eye and make this appear very painterly. I also like the sense of depth obtained. Well done, David. Have a good weekend.
John

Rinie_Hoff (9340) 2006-08-21 18:12

Hello David, Congratulations with your number 200. You chose a very nice one for this event.
The colors in the sky are stunning and there’s a nice depth in the picture because of the framing by the rock on the left and the land on the right. The reflection on the sand is very nice a s well, a bit light than the real sky, very nice!

vincz (19113) 2006-09-04 7:15

This is such an impressive shot! Everything is so perfect. cannot pick one thing in particular that would be better than another one. Congratulations for your 200th anniversary (well...).

kryger (297) 2006-09-28 13:37

Unbelievable image... it takes few minutes to see everything it consists of. I love the dynamic range of colours, it seems it's just one layer, but I can't believe it.

cozy (998) 2006-09-28 14:05

WOW WOW WOW!!!

This has got to be one of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen! Absolutely perfect, welldone!! I agree with Sheila, with photos like this, it's no wonder organisations approach you! Congratulations on your 200th.

janstec (33) 2006-12-07 13:33

Nice job! The colors and composition are simply amazing. It's interesting to see the orange sunset in the background, and the blue sky in the reflection on the sand.

By far one of the best pictures I've seen around here.

sennaista (50) 2006-12-07 13:34

Lovely image, especially the retention of so much detail in both shadow and highlight areas, and the subtle lead-in lines.

Gorgeous. Is this an HDR?

lelson (0) 2007-07-21 10:49

Impressive colors in this shot. I like the composition and that reflect is superb. Maybe i miss some 'human' element that give scale to the composition. Amazing work anyway.

zain (58) 2007-08-01 12:04

Really dramatic shot. The colours and composition are extraordinary. I love the lagoon-like gaps in the clouds and the jagged rocks. An ideal pic to mark your 200th post! Good luck with the organizations :)

I just came by this magical photograph you posted as your 200th, and indeed it is a surrealistic image. Fabulous composition and exposure. It resembles the palette of a very good painter.
