[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
To see the most beautiful sunsets in Varkala Beach, you must go during the monsoon. There are 2 monssons a year. A light one hits in Oct. for a few weeks. June thru Aug. is the heavy rains. In 2005 it started pouring in April along the coast. Most was out in the Arabian sea, causing sheet lightening along the coast.

Hello Gloria!
Excellent seascape.POV,lighting,details,DOF and composition are excellent.TFS...:-)

Beautiful seascape Gloria !

Focus is sharp, large DOF is perfect to keep sharpness from the FG to the horizon. And exposure gives beautiful details in clouds and the water. One spot is a little bit OE in the upper left corner, I tried to recover it with Shadow/Higlihgt, but didn't succeed. May be you can if you have an original RAW file. Usually we recommand not placing horizon in the center of the frame, but to separate the image about 1/3 x 2/3. Horizon can be either up or down depending where the main subject is. I did a workshop to show you, at the same time it eliminated the OE spot.
Great seascape and TFS
