Excellent seascape. The marching clouds give a strong sense of movement. A lot of careful post processing I suspect to manage the dynamic range.

Very clever composition Vieri...love the way the rocks are leading the eye centrally to where the lightest element of the image is...are you using a linear blend technique here.

Beautiful and a bit alien - and that's a good thing.

Well, I use filters at the time of shooting to minimise post-processing and get as much as I can in camera - that said, of course there is some work to be done anyway

No, no linear blend technique (see above).

I like the variations in colors, levels, and textures here.

Everything came together nicely, well done.

It feels as though everything is in motion: the clouds coming at us, and the rocks seemingly pushing up through the sand and water. Very eerie. Great composition with the rocks, and the water streaming across the sand. So many different textures all clamoring to be recognized. And it comes out so balanced with features to look at all across the image. Truly excellent image. Thanks.

Thank you very much Ted for your comment, I am glad you enjoyed it! Barrika and its rocks is such an amazing place to work at, and when you get a sky such as that, there are so many different moods and layers you can put to a good use... I can't wait to go back there in September!

Best regards,

Vieri

Did you use ND filter? If so, what strength? Thanks
