Cathedral cove

Cathedral Cove - Accessible only on foot or by boat, famous Cathedral Cove is one of the “must visit” sites on the Coromandel Peninsula. The track begins at the northern end of Hahei. Cathedral Cove Marine Reserve, Te Whanganui- A-Hei, covers 9 square kilometres and is New Zealand’s sixth marine reserve. It is administered by the Department of Conservation. This site was chosen for a marine reserve because of the rich and varied habitats associated with the coastline and outlying islands. Reefs of hard rock, soft sediments, intricate caves and underwater arches provide homes for complex communities of plants, crustaceans, molluscs and fish. Sheltered from the worst of the southerly winds Te Whanganui-A-Hei gives visitors an opportunity to learn from and enjoy an unspoilt marine environment.

Hi Tim,
Wow, that's a beautiful photo from New Zeland. Amazing seascape, the blue shades of the sky and the water are so beautiful. Sharp and clear shot, moreover the subject is a really interesting rock. Fantastic scene, original photo. Good note, too. TFS.

hi tim, an amazing place, wonderful colors and details, that rock is incredible, great post!
thanks,

This is a "wow" shot, Tim, and I prefer it to the previous one you posted - which is still good. But this one jumps to another level, it almost seems like a different place.

The quality of light, the feeling of space and openness, the overall clarity - all seem better. This really is a very attractive image.

Excellent shot of Cathedral Cove Tim! I like your viewpoint and also the inclusion of people to give dimension to the scene. Beautiful colour and I also like the breaking wave which leads the eye straight into the picture. Well done!!

Oh Tim, this looks great. It is such a well known place in NZ and you show it off really well.
The colours of the sea, sand and sky look awesome. And the people standing by the rock puts the size of it into perspective
Looks like you must have had a great holiday down there.

Can I make a request ? hehe

If you have a chance to shot this in the sunset or sunrise with slow speed ? Gorgeous view. Reminds me of Leonardo movie :D

Kia Ora Tim,

The small braeking wave, the bathers, the boat, tiny islands, sculpted rock are all elements of a very interesting puzzle that our eyes like to explore and put after all together an enjoy the whole picture.
Well done,
Robert
