A fantastic sky Jimmy. The 50:50 split horizon is perfact for this scene as the spoked wheel effect of the sky would have not been evident any other way.

Awesome sky, Jimmy!

Cool sky! Iike the fg patterns too...

Beautiful photograph. Great play of patterns both in the sky and ground. Good work.

Cornrows! That is a really unique sky. The patterns in the fg are pretty cool - I think I see one of those "body chalk" outlines near the lrc.

great Sky!!!

Very cool sky jimmy and lovely pastel colors as well. very nicely executed and processed.

Great sky and reflection Jimmy. I like the textures in the foreground as well.

Clouds are fantastic Jimmy. Double the greatness in the reflection. Nice work.

Great composition and color tone Jimmy. The texture in the mud (or sand) works nicely together with the clouds above. Very nice shot.

Excellent. I love the play of textures, color and reflection!

This one is amazing. I love the cloud symmetry and fg lines.

Gteat composition, Jimmy! I like it very much!
Mauro

Great shot and composition. Lovely colours too.

Great patterns in the sky......and on the beach...........how do you like the Zeiss???

The lines really make this work. Great job.

Mark

Amazing, I love how the patterns in the foreground work with the unique reflected sky.

Great reflection, and nice lines and patterns in the foreground too. A very enjoyable image to view.

I really like these repeating lines in the sky and in the reflection. The subtle shapes and lines in the fg are really nice, as well.

Great shot. Love the repeating patterns. Well seen!

This is absolutely superb, Jimmy! I love the patterns and reflections. You keep outdoing yourself with these coastal scenes.

awsome regards aj

This is incredible, Jimmy. I don't have enough good things to say about it.

I like the symmetry in the centered horizon and the repeating lines above and below. Lovely color and light. Sweet shot, Jimmy.

Jimmy, wonderful color and cloud formations. I love the meanering lines in the sand and the way they interact with the reflections of the clouds. Very nice.

Quite the stunning selection of coastal shots Jimmy. Fabulous sky and I think the colors and textures here play a big part as well. Great job

What a beautiful catch; Great Image.

Beautiful!! You sure do get to "milk" this spot for all it's worth. It's good to live close to such a good spot. I was going to gripe about the 50/50 comp, but see it was necessary to display the great cloud patterns. Very nice!

Chris

Very cool Jimmy. Normally I don't like the 50/50 split, but here it works very well.

What a sky Jimmy. Lovely and relaxing scene.

Giovanni

Mesmerizing sky, Jimmy! Those fg patterns complete the image beautifully. Stunning!

Very painterly like Jimmy. I really like the processing, especially for the web. It works perfectly.

Very neat clouds and a beautiful capture.

Jimmy, Love the patterns of the clouds. The colors & textures are very pleasing!

What a wonderful effect has been created by your composition, which uses both the cloud formation and the patterns on the beach to its advantage. Great stuff, Jimmy.

was it 19th feb?
lovely image.

Thanks for the comments. To answer a couple of questions, I really like the Zeiss lens. It is one of the older versions that needs a special adapter for the Canon mount. The new ones do not need the adapter. I shot this image on March 31st. And, yes, I seem to milk this area over and over. When the tide is high and there are good clouds in the sky for sunset, I head to this spot. If the tide is a bit lower than a plus 3, then I can go hit other areas that have some neat exposed foreground rocks. I try to stay away from the 50/50 split, but this one was inevitable and, actually, I wasn't even thinking about it... just trying to go with the flow and get the clouds above and their reflections to work together.
