Ciao Tony,
meraviglioso paesaggio marino, bellissime le piccole dune di sabbia ricoperte dalle prime forme di vegetazione, eccellenti POV, DOF e composizione, fantastici i colori. Tu ci fai amare questa terra dai grandi spazi selvaggi, a cui noi con le nostre spiagge tutte antropizzate pensiamo come ad una vacanza meravigliosa.
TFS. Maurizio

Wow it must have been something...and this is not...it is as clam as could be and soft...really likable as an image via mood. I love it Tony!!! Where have you been? Worse weather coming your way and I wish more from this area would post winter images...it would be a good comparison for this wonderful image..

Hi Tony,

I hope to see the return of lots of our TN friends after the recent "storm".

This is a nice seascape with lots of sharp detail from foreground to background. I might have been tempted to make this into a panoramic by cropping off some of the top.

Hi Tony.
It is really something different from you. You managed to reflect an amazing state of nature. Especially I like unusual and very nice image of seashore and its vegetation. However, ocean, clouds and sky are reproduced brilliantly too. Bravo. Great, sensitive work and kind word of note.

Hello Tony,

I guess you're facing springtime now, with new photo opportunities and increasing beach life!
This is a lovely scene with very attractive colours, where the surf and fine clouds add value to the composition...

Hello my friend,

How are you today, I hope fine. And just what Evelynn hopes: to see the return of lots of our TN friends after the recent "storm".

What a beautiful seascape and what a perfect horizon!!! I love this compo. The dunes at the FG and the rocks at the BG. Wonderful. The different colors in the dunes are beautiful.

Thanks for sharing. Have also a wonderful weekend and TFS BOB

No se si es mejor o el primer plano de esta toma. El primer plano destaca por el sol y sombra muy acertado y que da dinamismo al paisaje y el fondo por la claridad. Muy bien encuadrada con evidente sensación de fondo.

Hi Tony,

It's so good to see a new seascape from New Zealand. I've missed them! Beautiful composition with the land, rock, sea and sky. Colors are beautiful - superb clarity. I love the whitecaps in the water and the lovely white clouds in the sky.

Hi good friend Tony,
Missed you and your wonderful images so much. It gives me immense pleasure to be back. This is an outstanding shot with such fabulous colours and neat details. The blue sky contrast so well with the green hillocks. The surfs add so much more to the image. Majestic view. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Tony,
I really like the colors and difference in light in shadow in the dune landscape. It has a real calming effect. The clarity of the air after a storm is always great, and gave you a great view to the cliff and horizon. I ma not so sure about the central placed horizon in this photo, since the top part of the sky doesn't bring any extra to the composition. I think a horizon on the top third would have been a better choise.

Hello Tony. I like the mixture of foreground warm colors against the cooler distant background. Very calm indeed and the perspective is really inviting. Excellent work as always. Best regards. Jusni

Indeed, it's a peaceful atmosphere here. The scenery invites for a rest and for some dreams... I love the foreground and its colours very much, it leads me to a delightful horizon...

Hello Tony

Their is a beautiful fluidity to the shoreline grasses in this shot.
The waves and grasses convey a feeling of a gentle breeze.
Excellent colours and sharp details.
