WC 428: Port Campbell NP

Port Campbell National Park is in the Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia. The most magnificent view around here is the Twelve Apostles - those giant rocks standing along the coastline. In recent years, several Apostle have collapsed. This photo was taken in Gibson's Beach in Port Campbell National Park, where we can view this Apostle in a very close distance.

I like the crispness, the rock in the foreground and the unusual and pleasing representation of subtle colors.

Yan, I like the calmness of the water as opposed to the ominous sky. Your use of the rock as a foreground element and the detail that can be seen in the sand is very nice. This must be a beautiful park.

This composition has an appealing moodiness to it. I probably would have framed this up with the foreground rock a little more to the right. The "rule of thirds" does work at times. :biggrin: Nice offering!

Yan: A place I hope to see one day but until then this does very nicely. Love the water action and sky. >=))>
