A cloudy morning on Inverness Beach but still a lot of dramatic light to enjoy at sunrise.

Thanks for having a look.

I like this one... it has more compositional continuity than your previous post and the light is very delicate and evocative. Neat work.

Excellent Eva. You definitely have got the hang of that big Pentax and the scanning is a great complement to it. The squarer format suits you as well as me too.

Beautiful color and framing give this a calm and peaceful feel. You really know this environment.

Eva, you combined a number of very nice elements (the light, the color, the subtle sun rays, and the s curve of the water) into a beautiful and pleasing overall image. Well done.

Eva,

Another glorious sky. Solid composition with the curve and sweep of the sandy bank. The subtle color and reflection are very nice. Not so much drama here, but then we don't always need that do we? Just a quiet and simple landscape.

Very nice and quiet, a beautiful morningscape. I like the way you used the 67 format...

Understated beauty. You are pretty much a master of that with some of your work, Eva.

Eva, your variations from this place are always pleasant and surprising for me. I admire the way you pull out such a diversity of nuances.

The light in this is beautiful! Your exposure is perfect too! There's a lot of little things in this to visuall wander through. dramatic in a soft way!
