Luminescence

This work is one of the unforgettable areas, while trying to reach breathtaking rocks with the NZ 2011 group, the sea water started to rose up to our level and started to disturb our movement toward our goal. Therefore, we had to decide either to keep going or to go back to our starting point. Some of us went back again and the rest stayed resisting the extreme waves and coldness.

Once we are done, we tried to reach the point we started with. However, we lost it and had to climb an 85 Degree wall of rocks and dust.

Glad to hear your thoughts

I like the way that the movement of the clouds mirrors the wave movement. Also like the subtle colors.

Wise choice of exposure time, not too long to distroy the texture.

Aziz,

Wonderful comp and the colors, well, I can only think of a new term I'll call, "super pastels." What a great sky - love the streaking clouds which are kind of standing in as sun rays too. Beautiful sunset-seascape image.

The only suggestion I have would be to try and make this more blue and less purple? Of course, that's entering the realm of personal choice too, but just a thought.

Beautiful light. I had to climb the cliff the first time I visited this place. Now I always time it with low tide ;)
