Have no idea why this has had no comments. The scene alone, without the figure walking, is excellent with its leading lines and vast tonal range. Has impact!

Love the long undulating shore line here, Dave, as well as the cliffs fading into the distance. Going b&w works very well in this scene, emphasizing nicely the shapes and brightness. Tell your honey she makes a great scale figure!

Gorgeous black and white, Dave, I don't think that color could improve this great composition and tonal range.. And the reflections are beautiful.

This works really well in b&w. The person adds interest and puts the finishing touch on the image.

Dave: Marvelous. Reminds me of the beach in front of my grandmother's house in Oregon that I walked so many years ago. 2 thumbs up! >=))>

This is a gorgeous b & w treatment and the silhouette is like the cherry on the ice cream. Lovely.
