nice, peaceful mood here. I like the subtle but dramatic processing. Perhaps I would feel different if it were printed large, but the mountains? in the background might be more of a distraction than an addition

I also am really liking the color palette and beautiful cloud formation. Quite nice.

I like the simple beauty of this, Ken. Lovely blues with just enough warm tones thrown in the mix to provide some contrast.

Great shot!

I could see a re defining of the horizon line so no land was there too. :toast: :toast: :toast:

Thanks everybody for your comments, from my very limited knowledge of landscape photography, I thought the mountains emphasised the edge of the ocean :toast: :toast:
