Thanks for the feedback on my last post. It always amazes me what and how things resonate with others.

Here's a vertical version of an image I posted several weeks back. Hope everyone has a safe, fun and productive holiday!

Beautiful shot Kurt. The rocky coastline and the formation of the sky pulls you right through the image. Great contrasting color. A real winner!

This is very nice Kurt. Your comp leads me through the scene really well, and beautiful color in this! Your longer exposure with the water made for a very nice look surrounding the rocks. Happy Holidays to you as well.

Wow, you had much better light than Mike and I did this past October, Kurt. The long exposure here has created a very dreamy mood with misty water and that sky rocks. Happy holidays to you also.

Beautiful and ethereal work Kurt. The smoky water and grand light really make this scene.

All the elements are beautifully rendered here. Superb seascape photography.

Nothing not to like here...well composed, lots of great detail in the FG rocks, and the softness of the clouds and light, nice! Happy Holidays to you as well

Your comp works really well here and I like the misty water. Some nice shadow detail too.

A beautiful image Kurt. Love the dreamy feel. The bottom of the image is a touch dark for my tastes or the bottom section could be cropped out for a tighter composition (more a square format).

Great moody shot Kurt! The misty water from the long exposure works very well here, IMO. Different take on Acadia!

I love the way you captured the water in this- ghostly beautiful against that spectacular sunset.
