Hi Renier, A very fine original B&W composition of these strange stone formations. Since seeing them in textbooks as well as on calendars i have had an urge to see them. The high tide and visitors brings the scene alive and shows scale well. TFS, Murray.

Hello 'Bay Ren,
You have become a master of b&w photography. Just curious, did you set your cam to b&w mode or did you process them after the shoot? This is a very pleasant image. Love the two winter-clad couples on both sides, good balance. This is an attractive low pov. I have some visitors from Cebu who are craving for sinugba. I think I will take them to the seafood market after I return from work. Greetings! Danilo

Great shades of grey layers into the background. Nice people silouettes. The geometries make you check the photo out. Well seen and converted. TFS. K2

Hi Renier,

Beautiful composition.
Mysty lights..
Well presented.

A bit chilly looking at the way the figures are rugged up Renier. An excellent POV and the conversion done well to alleviate the shine on water and rocks. TFS,
David

Great capture, I love the way you've shot into the light - it works well and really draws attention into the rounded boulders. It does look a little as if the horizon is skewed slightly to the left, but the overal impact here is great!

Hi Renier,
Your gallery has a superb collection of B&W!
I like this one for its composition. The people seem in wait of a boat coming back with their beloved. Excellent choice of conversion considering the backlit. Great fluidity with the range of grey tones. Very beautiful! Annie

I like it Renier
The figures show nicely opposite the sun and I like the movement of the scarf in the wind and that strange feeling of being on the rocks by the sea
I can't explain it more

Hello Renier. I can see why you have been posting bw. You are very good in seeing the subject with excellent contrast and well managed lighting. Stunning subject placements with good depth in this composition. Thanks for sharing and best regards. Jusni

Hi Renier,

For me colour is somehow very important and I always am amazed when a B&W picture pleases me, as indeed this one does.
Lovely textures and details and the sunlight reflecting in a thousand places really brings the picture to life.

Hello Renier,

This is a balanced composition with a fine winter atmosphere!
I think it is the heavy clothing that gives them away, hehehe...
A wonderful sense of depth in the frame, and the backlight is nicely controlled!

Greetings,
