Mighty Pacific

This image was taken along the Oregon coastline. Notice the person

watching the angry sea. All comments are welcome and appreciated;

thanks for stopping by, Sondra

An excellent picture that captured a perfect moment to show the grandness of the ocean. Very good composition and use of the human scale to represent the wave size. Very good detail and color. Juan

Hi Sondra, you've really got your timing down pat to get the peak of the action just right......Jim

Thanks, Juan and Jim for your kind comments. Cheers, Sondra

beautiful view good composed with sharp timing

the only critique i can provide is about some chromatic abberation(?) in the wave's shadow

Excellent timing,very good composition,exposure and color contrast,Sondra.Beautiful landscape.

Great shot, excellently composed (the man observing, indispensable), and excellent timing of course.

Sondra, is it near Cape Kiwanda? The power of the waves is the same; the rock color, the same and I was in that area last summer. Excellent shot and the presence of the observer really adds ( and makes man look so small in front of nature).

Paula, this view point was south of North Bend, OR. We started our journey at Lincoln City and headed south to Crescent City, CA. Sondra

Nice use of all the elements of the picture with the small figure contrasted with the static mass of rock and te power of the waves.

Thanks to all for stopping by and leaving your thoughts. Cheers, Sondra

Most people that have commented must be viewing on smaller screens like I am currently. Since I know where all of the color noise is located, I have to look very hard on my 17in wide-screen notebook to see it. On my 21 in LCD, it's very troubling. Maybe due to high saturation, you developed a color shift in pixels. Upper right part of the sky and center bottom of the wave. The noise leans to magenta.

Great timing of the wave, did you see any whales?

No whales, Dave, thanks for your comments.

Sondra, I'm very glad to see you are back......So hope you have a speedy recovery......Jim

Thanks, Jim, I am well on my way back slowly but, surely.
