Hi Bernard,
A really wonderful photo with awesome colors and excellent exposure. The composition with the low POV is very strong and leads me into the photo. Your weeks of planning paid off for sure. I just love the details in the boulders. Did you know that simular boulders can be found along the coast near San Fransisco?
TFS,
Niek

What a great shot of the Moeraki Boulders! Professional!
The long expo. makes it even more dynamic with the waves flowing through between the rocks! Awesome!
I wish I could have done a pic like this when I was there! Unfortunately the sun was down and I couldn't get enough light to make a great shot! :) ...next time!
TfS, Bernard!
cheers

Hi Bernard, the filter has given you a very good result - I love the colours of the early morning here. The low POV emphasises the unusual bolder shapes. Well composed too,

Awesome work Bernard - composition, colour and mood all combine to make a very ethereal image.

I love the detail in the boulders which are a nice counterbalance to the movement of the water between and the waves beyond.

Me. I would have been paranoid about dropping my camera into the sea :o)

It looks more like a painting than like a photo. The water in the bottom of the picture look just like the fog above. And the contrast is excellent. Just perfect!
I would shoot this picture a few more times as the sun slowly shines and paints the sky in different colors, hoping that the tides would allow that.

Hi Bernard,
this is really fascinating. I looked at a couple of your pictures on TL and must say that your work clearly demonstrates ability.

This is a good example. The 'blue' works and adds something really special to this shot.

Well done. Best regards, Daniel
