Very beautiful shot. The details are very rich and the exposure is just right for this landscape image. Well done Stephan. :)

Hi Steve,
Superb shot, I love the effect of the ultra wide angle that makes the ground look as if it's disappearing beneath you. Excellent exposure, great colours and detail throughout. I also like the shutter speed, enough to get some movement in the water but retain some detail. A nice moody sky too. It must have been a great place to sit and ponder life, the universe and everything.
Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Stephan,
A barren yet beautiful seascape! Great use of all that wonderfully textured rock in the foreground. Beautiful subtle colors in this moody light. Overal compostion is superb. A great sense of depth and space. Well done!

You captured nicely the strenth of this sea in this place, only the smell is missing :)
Lovely lights, details and as always a perfect POV.
Thanks, MF for sharing your trips with us.

Hi Stephen,
It looks like a storm was developping over land. Which wasn't that bad, because it helped you with the lighting and with gave you a wild surf. Great POV with the rock in the FG leading me toward the horizon but stopping me at each gap and breaking wave. I remembered that you wrote me that the Canon lens had some problems with sharpness in the corners. Is this the reason why the rocks in the front look a little unsharp?
TFS,

One must know that a signature style has been developed when others are able to spot your images from the thumbnails! I think that lens was invented for you. I suppose it could be a little sharper but the composition is so powerful that who cares! It is such an interesting POV for an ocean surf picture.
