Hi Bob,
It looks as gloomy as my city right now- dark skies and clouds + rain- only exception is the sea :o)
Well composed and exposed capture. TFS
All the best,
Selen

A powerful naturescape with surging seas and heavy clouds, the sun trying to peek behind them Bob, once Kodak Pan-X was one of my favourite all around B&W films, very good tonal gradations were possible with that negative material... You really have a perfect scanner my friend.

Superb capture... I wonder how you managed this shot...superb clarity and the B& W lends a superior quality to the shot.

Hi Bob,

Such a moody view of the Pacific! Those clouds are sooooo low and threatening. I love the patterns of the water rolling into the shore. You are enhancing my interest in B&W's.

Hi Bob,
Excellent seascape shot and the B/W presentation makes it look so dynamic. The dark clouds and the rolling surf provides action and life and I like the way the sun is trying to peep out from the clouds and illuminating the sky. Very neat and sharp image and a fantastic composition. Thanks for sharing this fine image.
