Hi Tony,

What a wonderful Christmas Eve! And what a spectacular scene. The seagreen water and the blue sky with the fluffy clouds are gorgeous. Beautiful colors - I love the red on the rocks. It really is hard to believe that 2007 is coming to an end.

Hi Tony

What a wonderful shot of this beautiful Seascape, nicely composed with the lichen covered boulder in the foreground, and the Trees and Clouds in the BG, I could quite happily spend my Christmas on this beach.

Best Wishes for 2008

WOW ... a most wonderful shot of beautiful nature! Reminds me to my visit to NZ in 2003 (gorgeous trip). A very nice composition, stunning cloudscape and beautiful colours. Love the rocks in the foreground. Great work!

Hi Tony

my in-laws are somewhere on in NZ at the moment, so I guess they must also be having reasonable weather!

Love the shot, as with all your shots. One day I will get to NZ and I hope it is sooner rather than later. Great composition.

Although 2007 is coming t an end, there is still my wedding anniversary and my birthday to come yet!

Hi Tony,
This photo is like a back to reality check for me. After seeing so many winter photos, it almost felt we had snow here as well. Your sunny summer photo makes me realize that I am actually looking at photos on TN. it does bring a nice warm fibe into my house, which I really needed.
The clarity in this photo is most wonderful. The exposure is very good, especially considering the harsh light. I really like the lichens covered rocks in the FG. Those lichens add some wonderful extra color.
TFS,
Niek

Ah yes, beautiful summer day....
Wouldn't mind to be strolling here today in the sun and taking a swim. Fine composition, POV and beautiful color.
Happy New Year to you Tony and TFS
Richard

Wow you are making me wish for summer. I just cleaned snow from my car for 3rd time today....I see some already dried weeds there Tony. A beautiful representation of tech season in mood. A Canon with a good man behind the lens.

Thanks for this peacefull and fantastic pic,the colours are great !! Luciano

Hola Ho, es impresionante ver tanta belleza y tanta limpieza en esos ambientes. Técnicamente es una foto con gran profundidad y muy equilibrada donde hay varios elementos importantes muy bien captados: la roca del primer plano, el mar y el conjunto de nubes, todo ello captado con elegancia y naturalidad.
Muy bella. Un abrazo y gracias por tus deseos para el nuevo año: BUEN AÑO 2008 PARA TI TAMBIEN:

Hello Tony,
Wonderful capture at the height of the NZ summer. This stream and beach scen is perfectly composed and made extra interesting by the two sharply contrasting lichen-covered rocks in the FG. I also like the way the cloud formation continues with the shape of the headland.
Another masteriece from you Tony!
I wish you all the best for 2008.

Ciao Tony,
che splendido paesaggio estivo!
I colori di questa foto sono davvero eccellenti e sembra quasi di essere sul posto.
Che grande nostalgia del sole e delle calde giornate che da noi sono ancora molto lontane.
Grazie e buon 2008 anche a te,

Wow Tony, thanks for this warm and beautiful puff of summer! It feels so good to look at such a scenery as the last days have been very grey here, after the rain melting away some of the snow. Beautiful limpid light gives beautiful colours in this scene that you captured like a pro. I like the composition with my eyes ending in the clouds and the mountains far far away. Thank you!

Another gorgeous seascape! Lovely!

Happy New Year to you!

Dear Tony,
the black rock in front topped with a layer of orange red algae is standing in a most exquisite colour contrast against the emerald waters and the deep blue sky. Magnificent depth in this picture, so clear and bright, well composed, and filled with light! Wonderful - a most beautiful, powerful source of energy. Thank you!
Returning all my best wishes to you for a Happy andd Prosperous New Year!
