Through the Gap

Sweet light and spot. The comp really bugs me b/c my eye is taken hard left and out of frame. Big no no. Others might not feel as strongly but kills the shot for me personally. Processing/etc is spot on :)

I like the shot but I agree with Aaron, the rocks really lead my eye out of the frame. Nice job with the water and sky however.

MIke, I like your general presentation on this one very much. The processing is well done too.
I can see the point about the rocks angling out of the frame and wonder if a square comp might work better, just thinking out loud here. It might just bring the focus back to dead center a little more with the FG rocks as well as get the POV to the distant island or landmass out there.
Regardless, this is right in your wheelhouse and your excellent style of photography for sea / beach-scapes. Another fine post.

Great sky. Comp could be stronger as others have pointed out but I love the light you captured and the flow of water over rock

Nice wave action Mike and I like the light reflecting on the wet rocks. Nice sky too.

Beuaitufl light and location. I can see what Aaron means about the comp. It doesn't bother me that much here but I think maybe another angle would have worked better. Processing looks good.

So many things to like in this scene, Mike, although Aaron makes a good point about the line of the rocks. Love the light on the rocks and in the sunset and also the wave action into the rocks.

Beautiful, love all the detail in the rock. The water looks just right and I don't mind the water on the left because there is so much else to look at.

Great sky and wave action, Mike. I can see what others are saying about the rocks, but it doesn't bother me that much because of all the other beautiful elements in the image. I could also see this working with Paul's crop suggestion.

Mike: I really envy you this experience and the capture. Beautiful image.>=))>
