When I shot this scene I wanted to bring out the sky and the waves at the same time. I decided that in order for me to do this is converting it to Monochrome. For me the stillness of the rocks amidst the fury of the waves and the calmness of the clouds/ sky complements each other like yin and yang..
ISO 50 l 20mm l f16 l 1" l CPL l .9 NDGRAD SE l 5DMK2 l 17-40L

    This is an image you can look at for hours(!). Excellent shot. Did you use any filters on the sky?

    I agree with your assessment of the photo's strengths. It has an emotional feel to it that elevates it above other seascape shots.

    Great shot Gorio, your composition is spot on... I love how the movement of the foreground water leads you out into the waves... well done thumb.gif

    I love how you capture the movement in the water. It makes an ordinary picture into something extraordinary. Good control of light and excellent use of filters.
