Blue 'N Gold

Not a wowser. Not a special fall or winter photo. Just a plain view of what I walk over and around while shooting low tide sunsets. Guess it beats shoveling snow. I did like the blue abstract streaks against the golden sea life and the little bit of red.

Canon 5d2, 90mm TS-E, two shot stitch.

Not a 'wowser' as you say but quietly beautiful nevertheless. Great stuff, Jimmy.

Nice detail throughout. Good reflections of the sky!

Lovely abstract. I like the intense blue "cuts" across the surface.

Nice job on the stitch. I like the shadows and the strong blues. Something different but enjoyable.

The thumb was not too revealing. It's fun to see the full-size. Good eye for finding the interesting comp. The bright red flecks are a bit distracting.

Very cool abstract image Jimmy. At first glance I though I was looking at an aerial image of lakes. Nice colors and light.

A lovely study in color and textures. I like the kiss of light across the rocks.

Cool Jimmy! Almost looks like something scratched those grooves into the rock. The light is nice here, as well as the warm/cool contrasts.

Great eye for seeing this one Jimmy. I like the warm and cool color contrast, and all that great texture. I do get the feeling that I would like to see the composition "slid" upward ever so slightly, but I'm not sure if there was anything of interest up there.
