Still working through exhibition images :)

This is sunset in Freshwater West, a long exposure causes the water to apear like a mist which seems to me to be like sand blowing accross the desert - hence the title.

Very nice soft light Chris.

Good job!

Terrific composition Chris, this is a classical view captured brilliantly. Shutter speed is spot on and the light you have caught is amazing.

Hi Chris,
This is a very nice photo. A long exposure, but you still got the sky and the clouds sharp. It has a magical quality.

Kia Ora Chris, this is a beaut seascape. I have always admired photographs of this nature but have sadly failed in my few attempts at it. Very nice effect, colour and as previously mentioned good sharpness of the cloud cover maintained. Congratulations.

Kindest regards from New Zealand.~wayne

Superbe! I like the diagonal placement of the rocks, the colour and texture of the water - so peaceful and contrasting so nicely with the sunset sky. Distant rocks on the left add nice detail to the picture. tfs

Beautiful capture.

Je suis sincere, ta gallerie, c'est celle qui m'a le plus épaté!
Passe un bon dimanche!

A great picture, sophisticated, a landscape for grown ups,thats why the jolly writing in the title really jars on this one i'm afraid.Personal taste, but i would dump titles all together, they are generally distracting.
Food for thought.
Martin

I am actually stuck fro words it is that GOOD!!!

All i can say is well done!!GREAT IMAGE

Joe

Hi,
good shot.
La composition est magnifique, j'aime beaucoup l'utilisation du long temps de pause sur l'eau qui créé un effet brouillard assez étrange et mystique.
Continue à nous faire rêver.
