Great perspective John - I like the repition of horisontal bands of colour and structure. The rocks balance the composition nicely and the simplicity brings a peaceful atmosphere. Fine work!

thanks very much Arif for your kind comment...
it was a moment between two storms... so the water cames out to the sand like that and at the same time it was so calm the weather... but not for long...


John Hatz   {K:139710} 6/2/2008
thanks very much Joggie for your kind comment...
I hope I could had a wider lens to get some more of lines in perspective... but 28mm on a Dslr are not excactly that we call...wade... :-)

Excellent perspective and abstract of natural elements John, great composition and I love these lines and layers in your perspective vision, it looks so peaceful and calm, just like before the storm ! :)) Very fine shot !!!
Be well dear,
Hug,
Srna


John Hatz   {K:139710} 6/3/2008
thanks very much my friend, glad that you like it... I was lucky there because the water cames out on the sand... after a wild storm the beach has really interesting shape... and it was so clean... without any footprint or other marks...
...and yes, a new storm cames...


Srna Stankovic   {K:106802} 6/3/2008
thank you my dear friend for your always supportive suggestions and you were right as usual, changed my image very quickly cause this minor detail in cropping sometimes means a lot, THANK YOU :)))and i would really love to be there to see what are you talking about now ... really do adore the sea, you already know that !!! :)))
be always well my dear dear friend,
hug,
srna


John Hatz   {K:139710} 6/3/2008
