[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The giant Cliffs of Moher captured from a boat on the ocean near the western coastline of Ireland. Photographically, this was an exteremly hard shot, because the weather on that day was quite stormy and the boat wasn't too stable during the cruise. 4 degrees of rotation was done in order to get the image straight...

Some information from Wikipedia:
The Cliffs of Moher (Irish: Aillte an Mhothair, lit. cliffs of the ruin, also known as the Cliffs of Mohair) are located in the parish of Liscannor at the south-western edge of the Burren area near Doolin, which is located in County Clare, Ireland.
The cliffs rise 120 meters (394 ft) above the Atlantic Ocean at Hag's Head, and reach their maximum height of 214 meters (702 ft) just north of O'Brien's Tower, eight kilometres away. The cliffs boast one of Ireland's most spectacular views. On a clear day the Aran Islands are visible in Galway Bay, as are the valleys and hills of Connemara.
O'Brien's Tower is a round stone tower at the approximate midpoint of the cliffs. It was built by Sir Cornelius O'Brien, a descendant of Ireland's High King Brian Boru, in order to impress female visitors. From atop that watchtower, one can view the Aran Islands and Galway Bay, the Maum Turk Mountains and the Twelve Pins to the north in Connemara, and Loop Head to the south.

Hi Kristof,
I like the 3 levels, sky, cliff and sea, horizontal in good proportion. An other version in WS with more light on the cliff and a darker sky. Hope you like it. TFS

Hi Kristof,
Great cliffs, wonderful nature. Lovely light and and the sea color.
Congratulations for the nice work.

Best Regards.
Isa

hello,
wow! Great shot of that famous Cliffs of Moher!
Excellent POV, nice colours, especially the colour of the water.
Lovely presentation.

Szia Kristóf!

Nem látszik a végeredményen, hogy nehéz volt elkészíteni, nagyon részletgazdag lett. A keret is tetszik, szerintem megy hozzá. Első ránézésre nem néztem volna 120m magasnak a falat úgyhogy hasznos volt a leírás is. Egyszer nagyon kipróbálnám milyen lehet víz fölött egy ekkora falat mászni.. biztos nem olyan mint itt a Mecsekben :)
Ja és szerintem a ws-nél szebb színei vannak az eredetinek..
TFS :)

Üdv,
Andor
