Excellent. Perfect the game of the planes and thirds of the image. That diffuse aspect reinforces the sensation of storm and wind. Wonderful.

This has worked very well. Four strips of the three natural element, land sea and air, the top three strips balanced out perfectly with the sea, a tempestuous vision

Got this strange impression that your last picture is even better than the previous one... It's my fault, obviously!
So, what can I say, love the tones, the mystic,the magic, the drama, the poetry, the power of this photo...

Amazing. This photo reminds me of an impressionistic painting. One really gets the sense of wind and water moving.

Very creative. Love the effect..the blurr..the soft contrasting color. Reminds me of an impressionist oil painting.

Alivia from Saint-Etienne, France
What a fabulous treatment , the sea is fraught with foam, but they seem a duvet, a white vapor that flies in the wind, is magical and majestic at the same time. Amazing and great shot.

Sharon, this is definitely a keeper! Nice PP effect on the water gives it an almost surreal quality. Well done!

I was so fascinated by your image :)
Pacific waves contrast so well with the mountains and the dark trees, with the mist in between.
Very well done.

Mike Paulison from United States
Well Sharon... this is something. This looks like a place usually without such waves. This has your usual sense of intrigue, but in a whole different way. I can feel something brewing here. Really wonderful image. As always, it's got me thinking.

oh superb, gripping and dramatic coastal shot! one really feels the power of the wind skimming the waves just looking at it! the dark trees and cloud above really complete the shot and mood very well!

Momo from Montpellier, France
oohhh, that's intense...amazing color BC...and the mist coming up, the bands of sky, mountain, trees, water and then more, the bands created by the waves...hmmm, horizontal life, movement...just evokes a lot of different things...

I presume it's difficult to catch this scenery. I can felt the water movement and fresh wind. The background absolutely awesome. Bravo, BUT watermark (signature) destroy some ambiance.

I've already commented on this excellent image, but am returning to say that it was great to see it again on VFXY's Weekly Theme page. As you've noticed, Sharon, it's side by side with your post there, and I couldn't be in better company!
7 Aug 2009 12:25pm
@Andrew Gould: Thanks so much for your kind words. Actually, it was how I was feeling when I discovered I had posted right after you for the vfxy theme. I am am in good company :)
