leo burkey 0 Posted March 24, 2008 That lens is sure a beauty and sharp as a razor. Great detail and beautiful sky. Another fine capture! Link to comment

whydangle 0 Posted March 24, 2008 Hello Kah! This is nicely done and most significant is the overall exposure. You have managed to avoid the dreaded grad shadow that normally would be visible across the top of the rock peaking above the horizon. I will read the details after this message but would likely assume a grad was utilized. The horizon is nice and flat (not Curved) and the sky and clouds fan out ever so dramatically from the wide angle choice. The culmination of this photo story is the multi colored and textured stone in the lower right along with the oxidized? or algae covered? rock adding another color element. Beyond that is the thoughtful and clever title that parallels the photo concept, a rugged coastline of rocks and boulders blocking access to the inviting ocean water. Congrats on the new equipment as well. Cheers! Just noticed a hard grad. How did you avoid the grad shadow with a hard grad? Link to comment
free2run 0 Posted March 25, 2008 Great shot, Kah. The color and the textures are just wonderful and very well captured. Link to comment
kahkityoong 0 Posted March 25, 2008 Thanks for your feedback here. The orange is lichen, commonly found on many Australian coasts. The light was fairly diffuse so the rock was not in shadow so a 2 stop hard grad wouldn't be expected to cause a clipped shadow. I also exposed to the right as much as possible to ensure I could retrieve detail from this area. Link to comment
ewert02 0 Posted March 25, 2008 This is beautiful. The rock in the foreground is so clear and sharp and the sky was captured beautifully. Great work. Link to comment
cherlyn 1 Posted March 25, 2008 Very well composed with the rocks in line with the 'moving' clouds. Well titled as well. Link to comment
georgesaguna 0 Posted March 26, 2008 A M A Z I N G realy great depth with those leading lines leeding to a great ancour point. wonderfully composed Link to comment
copeg 0 Posted March 26, 2008 Beautiful shot Kah. The sky and foreground are quite dramatic in this. Extremely well composed as usual...some incredible depth. I tend to lean toward the color version of this shot, mainly for the color of the lichen, the detail of which seems to get lost in the b&w. Link to comment
