Eva,

Lovely, almost quiet kinda scene. Like Dan, would love to be there and listen to the little waves making little splashes on the rocks.

Technically, at least to me in this presentation, the shadows look a little "Velvia shadow recovered," whatever that means. But Velvia always had a tough time with conditions like this. Still, a wonderful coastal image.

Nice work here with the high contrast and film capture, Eva. Not always easy to pull them off as nice as this one, especially with V-50. I always seem to get the results of inked up shadows under these extremes with V-50, but, it's what I use all the time.
I really like the composition with the shoreline and the somewhat diagonal cut to the land mass.

I love the perspective here! It's very contrasty, but i think that's ok for this scene. There does seem to be a minor halo around the tree.

Great shot Eva, I can almost feel as though I'm standing there. The sidelight is brilliant, really brings out the textures well. There seems to be a red haze on some of the rocks in the foreground ( on the left edge of the frame) that's a minor distraction. Love the image though!

Best

Eva, this is really nice, I would suggest cropping down to where the trees start on the left side of those tall trees. I only say this because the trees being so close to the top detracts a bit, at least for me. I think a crop would also put for emphasis on the wonderful color in the sky. I would also suggest darkening the darks some more to add a little more contrast, some of the shadows seem a bit flat. The light on the rocks is lovely!
