Torrey Pines State Reserve, California.

Another abstract from the beach. Yeah, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I enjoy the whole process.

Surprised I'm the first to comment. This is a very good abstract with some intriguing stuff going on. I like the warm/cool color palette and the contrast between the light and dark areas. The composition works well for me too.

Jimmy,

A little more reality in this one compared to your previous, but still a great reflection abstract. Just me, but I wouldn't mind seeing the greens and blues with a little more pop, where that's with saturation or some sort of contrast adjustment. Otherwise, I think this is another wonderful abstract.

Very nice Jimmy. I think it would look just as good as a vertical.

Illusion-ary for sure. Now that Lon mentions it, I could see amping up the blues and greens too.

Cools abstract and I like the rough contact between the warm and cool colors.

Jimmy,

Almost looks like a sheet of burnished copper, I'm leaning to the first there's more motion in it, but both are nice.

Jimmy,

That is an amazing and sudden transition in color. Very neat.

So the last one was reflected light from the sky???? This is reflected sea cliffs, right? Anyway, I like this one as much as the last. Must of had to get a little wet for this one.

Very cool image! So abstract that I had to wonder if this was in the Photo Art gallery. Wonderful Yin/Yang comp.
