 I like the motion of the water and the waves!..but I don't like so much the sky and the clouds!...they seems to be separated from the whole image..it's a post production effect?Best regards..

Hi Giuseppe, that was a very stormy day and the clouds were vey dark. But there were some points where the sun rays can pass through to reach the ground. The rays are the result of that. I did use 2 stop reverse nd grad filter to keep the light balanced. I didn't do anything special for the foreground but for the sky to emphasize the clouds and the drama I did use luminosity mask to enlighten the sky and local contrast to make the clouds more sharp and dramatic. That was all basically what I did for this photo. ( Sharpness, color adj, contrast are usual adjustments...) I think it looks very contrasty but I wouldn't use smaller shutter to keep the clouds soft. Thank you for your comment, I hope, this is the answer to your question...

What a beauty,nice work.
