Beautiful scan gorgeous colours and those lines in the sand are very very nicely rendered it's a superb shot in chillingly clear light.

A beautiful scene with fantastic lighting. I like your composition with the expanse of beach balancing the large mountain. The tracks are a neat addition to the image. Well done. Chet

Beautiful Eva. I'm not used to seeing such crystal clear skies in your and Ian's Scotland images - gorgeous! I really like the textures and subtle colors in the sand, and especially like the bird tracks. Nicely done.

Eva,

This is classic Velvia! Oh, and a lovely coastal image too! ;-) I like the lead-in lines (and the tracks are better seen of course in the larger version.) I like the crispness and clarity here which makes one just want to declare, "what a beautiful day!"

Only small suggestion is that I would selective tone down the blue/cyan in the vertical crevices of snow in the mountain, but that's minor.

This shot from this locale provides an excellent view of the freshly tide cleaned beach, excluding the small bird prints. :wink:
Another wonderful capture from your trip to this site, Eva. :cool:

This looks like a masterpiece of simplicity and yet there is so much to see. Thanks Eva for your ongoing inspirational photography.

Real pretty scene, Eva. The coast and mountains in one scene make a fine combo.
