Stone Wave

Thanks for the feed back on Stone Bellies. This little beach has so many possibilities and once I get on a roll there I start seeing all kinds of things.

This next photo was a result of seeing that curved line in the rocks just as large wave crashed near by. I thought the curve looked like a curling wave about to crash.

I cropped the image to square. This is the second in my series. View it large to get all the detail.

Enjoy.

Wow, this is superb Youssef. It's hard to explain exactly why some images really connect with you at times, but this image just hit me like a ton of bricks! Absolutely beautiful, both with the subtle tones and hues, shadowplay, and the grand texture. The composition is fantastic too. One of your all time best IMO!

Love the design of the composition and the cool tones. That little bit of green seaweed bottom right catches the eye somewhat to be picky. Wonderful intimate.

Flow of the curved line very engaging and colors offset it well.
