This is really nice David. The repeating patterns and the way the reflection changes color from dark to silver to blue works great. Perfect sharpness too.

There is a nice feel here created by the repeating patterns in the sand. The reflection adds a lot of interest as well and makes me feel like I am standing on a wet beach waiting for some sun. TFS

Very nice composition of lines and shapes, also like the cloud reflections. Beautifully seen and presented David.

This one "feels" like the lines in the sand are moving and the clouds drifting. Cool!

The patterns, lines and reflections are very appealing and make a great image. i also love the cold blueish and silver tone. Well seen and well captured

While looking at this scene I can almost feel my feet gently sinking in the sand as if I were there. I think this is brillant both artistically and technically.

Your recent series is really interesting for me, David. Viewing this image, I have got the amazing experience of motion in the ripples as well as in the relection of the clouds. Your processing is spot on to my eye.

This is really fine! The sharpness of all the ripples in the foreground really grabs my attention and leads me to the cloud reflections. Well seen!

Wow, very well seen David. I very much like the ripples but one of the highlights here for me is that isolated cloud reflection. Great stuff!

David, This is really nice! I love all those patterns in the wet sand and the wonderful texture. The sky and clouds reflected in the little pool look fantastic here! Nice work... :toast:
