Hi Tim,
Wow I agree with Jan!! The texture is absolutely magnificent! It feels like what taking a millisecond of time and freezing every molecule would look like. This is an absolutely stunning picture - perfect light, beautiful vivid colours and most of all it feels so lifelike. I can almost imagine what the sand would feel like between my toes!! Excellent work!

Very nice landscape. The sand has good texture. the water is great, the clouds are fine. Gret exposure. the rock is well placed and changes the entire picture for his surface. the trees on the left on the little "hill" makes a good contrats. Great job!

Bloody wow ... again!

Awesome colours, the polariser really did its job - but so did you. Great comp and sharpness, beautifully sharp and level horizon.

Hello Tim,

Very nice shot especially the wave on the sand. Btw, did you work on the sky? maybe you give a too much cyan and blue there ? :D

New Zealand at it best!!

Well done!!

For all the non NZ viewers---
A lot of place names in New Zealand are Māori so the name Tōtoranui is:-

Tōtara means tree
Nui means big

So Tōtaranui = Big tree

hi Tim

Very nice colors in this bright light exposure, with good composition in this pov. The white waves blend nicely with clouds and contrast with color of water and FG brown/orange. Nice inclusion of the right mass of landform.

Hello Tim,

Less spectacular then the other one proposed by your link. However the presence of the rock here is an interesting element to add depth to your scene.
Great sharpeness and color pallet displayed with superposed layers.
Bravo !
