Nice moody, calm and balanced composition, James. I do like the movement of the waters in front and the way it builds a triangle leading the eye to the sea and an obviously amazing sky. For a perfect one you should flip the horizon of about 0.75 degrees counterclockwise as well as correct the colours. For me, there's a bit too much magenta at the wave most left and too much cyan in the lower parts at the clouds to the right. Regardless, spotting the scenery with these amazing lights and 'long' exposure: my thumbs up.

Cheers,
Hauke

Lovely capture Jim,

You must have caught the few short hours of good weather yesterday. Lets hope we get some high pressure soon with some snow.

Hi James,
Excellent work on the shutter speed, the exposure and the composition. You captured beautiful action in the bottom and stunning colors at the center and top. Maybe the horizon is a tad too centered, but the balance is there.
TFS,

Hi James,

This is perfectly composed, set and well just so well delivered. The water does seem to be smooth as velvet... looks almost like milk. :) I love that golden tone on the rocks... and the sky in that subtle mixture of blues. Very nice image.

Biance.

Can't say that I've ever seen a more FUN photo! The splash at the front sends chills...good chills and chills of fear for your camera! Hope you didn't get any salt water on it! Just incredible Jim!

the blurriness of the crashing waves, the stillness and sharpness of the clouds, the sun on the rocks...you wrung every inch of greatness out of this sceene.
