vertical format Carmel Beach: Sunset Retreat

I took this photograph as the water was retreating in front of the

rocks. The composition and exposure time were selected to show the

flow lines in the foreground water during the retreat as well as to

catch the reflection of sunset in the wet sand. All comments and

ratings are welcome.

Pretty shot, Jay. Love the lighting and the way you emphasized the reflection. Great placement of the boulders. Everything flows nicely in this image (no pun intended)! :)

The foreground is very strong. Powerful work.

You've definitely got the eye. I've enjoyed your entire photo.net portfolio for a while now. When I grow up, I want to be just like you! :O)

A wonderful foreground and general effect. For me though the sky is a little too orange. If this is wholly natural and not an artefact of the grad filter, I apologise ! 6/6

It's just perfect.

Hard not to like this one. Great composition and colors.

Beautiful shot and great lighitng!
