Violent Earth

wow that looks like an intensly beautiful sunset, some people might not like the blown highlights but I really don't mind. I do think I might like a small crop up from the bottom. Its a beautiful image, well done

Fadil, Beautiful shot. Love the color DOF Great job. I wish I lived were I could get a picture like this.

"Fire" and "Lava" were my first associations with this image. I think it is very very well captured. I do not mind the "hot" (blown ot highlights) of the sky - the fit the "fire" theme, but I think you could try to bring in some detail into the white area in the water.

I've always loved the pit depth composition, nice work Fadil.

Hi Fadil,
very nice scene and I think you nailed down the exposure just right.

Beautiful water action everywhere you look and the colors are fantastic!

Spectacular light. I agree that a small crop from the bottom and maybe toned down a few highlights in the water might improve what is an already outstanding image. I love the light reflecting off the rocks and the great sense of perspective, rare for an ocean landscape

Absolutely brilliant shot Fadil, i love how the orange light is getting reflected on the water from the last rays.. the sun is a bit distracting to me mainly because it takes the eye away from the beautiful fg because of its brightness. Still lovely shot overall

Incredible light, Fadil. While the blown out sky is a bit troublesome, the drama of this overwhelms everything else.

Now there is some drama!!!

Fantastically dramatic composition, well done.

Great shot. You can use some multiple exposure blending to avoid blown out highlights in the sky and water - but that's minor

That perspective is nuts. Great job and looks pretty scary too! Comp is there...bit more post work though. Feel if you play w/ the luminance in the red you could get some more detail out of the blown areas in the fg. Also, a RGND here might have held the sky in check a bit better...or blending to maintain DR. Overall lovely shot though!

This is a very nice and angry image! I wish you hadn't blown out all of those highlights, but it still works. Good stuff!!

This red light seems to come from another world! Great moment. The comp. itself is not singing that much to me, though I appreciate all the drama from the scene and water motion around.
