[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I live in a reasonably windy part of the world....or so they say :-) We do get a few windy days, like today. The morning was beautiful, blue sky, calm sea and then came afternoon....No more blue skies and no more calmness.....The wind suddenly developed. When I looked at the sea, I was attracted to the waves and how the wind created that whispy effect on top of the wave.

Hi Rute,
Welcome to Treklens. It looks like you had some strong winds down in Jeffreys Bay.
This is a nice shot but would maybe look better if you had some beach/sand in the foreground. And it may look more dramatic if you adjust the contrast a little.
It will also add alot if you write a detailed note on your photos.
Weldone and keep them coming,
Vernon

Hi Rute,

welcome to TL. I hope you will have lots of fun on this site. :) Interesting first posting; I like the theme and composition. Nicely captured stormy sea.

Have a good evening,

Stasa

Hi Rute,
Welcome to TL. Nice POV of this rough sea. I find that the sea salt sometimes washes out some of the depth in regards to the colours so increasing the contrast and reducing the gamma slightly would greatly improve this shot. I tried to post a workshop but I've reached my workshop limit for the day unfortunately. Also, notes really help when posting a photo. Alot of people won't comment without them.

Well done,
TFS,
Scott.

Hi Rute
Nice dramatic shot of rough seas. More contrast would lift the picture - I've done a workshop.
Cheers
