I think this is really pretty Eva. The colors, layers, and detail in the sky are all outstanding. Sweet work!

Very dramatic. Could see cropping this square as the right side of the image is less compelling.

Supurb! I don't often differ with Tony. But I disagree with his crop suggestion. There is one thing that caught my eye though, especially in the larger photo ... that small ? shaped dark cloud near the center of the image.

Am I being too picky? But ... it does catch my eye, which in effect draws a little attention away from the rest of the magnificent composition.

Beautiful seascape! Dramatic light, colors and lots of details in the clouds. It really comes out in the large version.

Another fine image from your trip. Tony's suggestion has merit, and I wonder if you took any vertical shots of this? The colors are wonderful in this, Eva.

Lot's of interest throughout this whole photo. Love the colours and drama in the sky. It's complimented well by the rocks in the water and the wave action. Nicely done.

Nice colour and comp Eva, the diagonal shoreline is a nice touch. That sky is superb.

Wonderful tones throughout, and as above, I love the majesty and detail of the sky....I much prefer this expansive view and openness over the zoomed version.

Lovely coastscape. I like the big curving arc that starts with the waves in the llc, runs to the dark hills on the right and back to the clouds and setting sun. I could see a modest crop both from the right and the top as possibly helpful. The repost is also nice, but it lacks the sweeping feel of the original.

Spectacular sky and color here and well chosen lines in the foreground with the beach and waves. Makes me ready for some ocean shooting which I will soon be at one for a couple weeks.
