Uttakleiv Beach, Lofoten Norway

Changing light on Uttaleiv Beach. One of the beaches I liked most on the Lofoten Transient Light Workshop.

Another beauty, and it has so much appeal for me just because it's unfamiliar. A great take on an extraordinary place.

Another very fine seascape from this area, Eva. Although not the same pop your film images have it works extremely well in all other categories with regard to comp, detail, exposure, etc. :cool:

Another lovely shot of this fantastic area. The algae covered rocks at the waters edge have picked up that green very nicely and I am very pleased you didn't polarise that glisten and kill the textures there. A very nice interpretation of a truly wonderful section of Lofoten's coast.

Eva,

The large view is a must here, it really makes a difference for me. Another fine coastal image with a bit of mood also gives the impression of a clearing storm, with the wonderful sky. To me, I could almost divide this in to quadrants, with each supporting the other and together they make for the lovely seascape.

Minor details, but is the horizon straight? looks slightly ccw.

Eva, I just love looking at your large version. What a beautiful scene this is. The mood is just wonderful. Excellent work!
It does look like a little cw rotation would help the appearance. :smile:
