    What a beautiful shot! The colors of sea and sky are calming, yet you can sense the hidden power of the water by the boulders and driftwood cast upon the shore. Thank you for sharing this one.

  2. James and Kelly Stone Says:

    This is a wonderful shot. Technically excellent! A well-deserved POTD!!! Congrats.

  3. Anurag Anurag Says:

    Conratulations on being the POTD.
    The shot is good but for me the foreground is too cluttered. My eye seems to be trapped in the lower part of the image. That said it is neverthless a beautiful image, with the exposure managed to perfection.

  4. Malta Photography Malta Photography Says:

    very good shot indeed. The lighting maneuvering is very professional and the color balancing in every place is just great. Very calm sensation.

  5. Alex Says:

    Technically good but not so original.

  6. giulia mollo Says:

    I am not a photographer, but I look at POTD and find that horizons and deep perspectives in nature allow me to Breathe!! thank you.

    Good foreground, good background; not spectacular but nice.

    Where is this, Charlie?

  9. Charlie Cruz Says:

    Hello everyone,

    Thanks for the comments.

    Planet lover, I wish I could say it had been taken in some remote wilderness. But no, this shot was just taken not to far from Gibraltar, where I live. It is about 15 minute drive across the frontier into southern Spain on the Mediterranean coast side.

    May the light be with you.

    Charlie.
