Hello to all my friends,
I like to dedicate this photo all to my friends in the Northern Hemisphere who are having winter and snow now, hope this southern breeze will warm your heart from the cold!
This is another captured from Titirangi too but on the evening sunlight that comes the opposite direction from my previous posting "morning sky", quite a different atmosphere and mood from the sky!
Sharing with you and thank you for viewing!
Best regards

Hi Tony.
Once more amazing landscape and breathtaking picture. I like very impressive combination of the lights and shadows, bright and delicate colours, attractive captured objects (perfectly illuminated green shore and clouds, dumped up sand and especially dark tree branches). My compliments and TFS. Excellent skill work.

Hi Tony!

Thank you for your kind words to the people of the Northern hemisphere. As far as I am concerned, I like the cold and the winter! Great moments to come!

Of course, your wonderful landscape scenery reflects a totally different atmosphere...

Thank you for sharing it with us!

Kind regards

Markus

Hello Tony,
great image of this sea-scape.
It is very cold in England but there is still no snow :(
Magnificent lighting and rich colours.
The composition is superb and the tree frames this photo nicely.
Well done,
Joe

Your seascapes are legendary Tony. The natural look of the coast in digital , made to look as though it were 35mm film work. Cinemascope we used to call it back in the day....
Bob

Thanks Tony for the dedication for us who are experiencing the cold and snows of winter. Here in central Minnesota, USA we have about 30 centemeters of snow on the ground and the temp. is -12C today. Happy to receive your sourthern breezes. :-)
The distant sea is nicely framed here by the tree branches. Looking at this I long for the open water in the distance.
That is an incredible tidal movement and being in the foreground leads my eye deeper into the image where I also appreciate the cloud forms and blue sky.

Hi Tony,
Thanks for poking my eyes out with this wonderful sunny landscape. :) I sure do appreciate the dedication, because I can really need some sunny weather. The temperatures are OK for me, but the grey sky and rain is bothering.
This surely is a very good photo with great details and wonderful light. Again your use of the natural framing by the tree is perfect. I like the way the clouds and mountain are on the same horizontal line. Impressive work on the spot on exposure.
TFS,
Niek

Ok Tony...dont rub it in about being cold in the northern hemisphere..my boilers whirring away to keep me warm!!
As for your fine picture I have to make one point about the pov..the branch to the left is shrouding the headland which is bathed in glorious warm sunlight..apart from that tony I love the lead lines you have found by the draining water.
Top Work As ever
best regards

Hi Tony,
what a great composition! The tree branches help to fill all that blue and the curves of the water in the FG leads us all the way into the background which seems to go on for miles and miles. The headland on the left is perfectly placed for some midground too. Great colour and exposure, it is indeed a warming sight for us cold Northerners, thanks :o)

Hello Tony,
you leaves realy a marvellous land, I look yours shots and I dream, tey are fantastics,
cheer ,
your friend,
Pat

Thanks Tony,

What a kind words to the people on the other side of the world. I really appreciate this. The dark FG and the light BG make this photo very exclusive. And the branches from the POHUTUKAWA make a gate to the nice calm sea and blue sky with the beautiful clouds on the horizon. Splendid. That's NZ in my memory. Regards and TFS BOB

Hi Tony, lovely seascape with splendid natural frame by great branch and wonderful colors, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hello Tony and thanks for the southern breeze. It is snow covered here in Central Ohio, USA. Haven't seen the sun in over a week. So either this is a great image or I'm just color challenged from seeing nothing but gray for so long. I'll vote for the fantastic image!! TFS

Hello Tony,
Thanks for the dedication, we do suffer from the gloom of winter at present! But a nice shot like this helps to brighten our lives.
Once again a superb composition with a very attractive curtain of the branches and foliage and a dark beach silver in the morning light. The sunlit headland provides warmth in the composition.
Well done, Tony,
Thanks again,
Ivan

Hello Tony,
The branches make a great frame for this fine view!
Amazing play of light, and the beautiful cloud formation attracts my eyes...
The sky tells the story of summer indeed; enjoy the season while we have to celebrate Christmas in the snow..!

Hello Tony

Another lovely shot of NZ coastline.It is good to see the emergence of Summer.
The lighting is very good and the colours are well saturated.
I feel as if I am under the shade of the big tree looking out.
The clouds make a nice accent to the shot.
Nicely framed by the branches of the tree.
Thanks for sending those warm breezes here to warm up a cold December day.

Hello Tony. The branch on top of the frame looks like the chines painting. The light on the rock is very contrasting in the beautifully framed shot. Well done and thanks for sharing. Best regards. Jusni
