[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Cape Coudic has a natural bridge called Admirals Arch.
It is playground for New Zealand fur seals who can be spotted right under the arch and travel all the way along the Tasman Sea between Antarctic islands, New Zealand and the south coast of Australia.

Great compo and POV in this landscape.
Nice colors, too.

Hello Thomas,

I really like the natural framing that you chose. I wonder if with a graduated ND filter one would be able to get a little more detail in the lower rocks. It is a really nice image and thanks for sharing it.

Thomas, I like the POV, we have a number of, bridges and windows here on the Califorina coast, nice contrasts that show the force of the ocean ..

A very interesting framing job. Well done!

The highlights seem to be a little blown out. I think a slightly faster shutter, or perhaps a ND filter, would tame the bright spots a bit. Further, it would remove the minimal details from the foreground rocks, blending them better with the rest of the dark frame. As it stands, we have just enough detail to *want* to see more...but that is pretty impractical. Better to remove the temptation, I think ;-)

Nice shot.

Hi Thomas,
Great natural framing by using the cave. I agree with both Evelynn and Mike on the exposure. But for the rest, this is just a beautiful vew.
TFS,
Niek

Hi Thomas,
Wow, beautiful looking place, I can almost smell the sea and hear the waves crashing. A nice shot, I love the framing using the arch. I think for the exposure, the dark arch has influenced the camera to overexpose the waves. A minor nit.
Regards,
Adrian
