I love playing with shapes that water makes on the rocks when the sea is rough, this beach is perfect for this

Very cool formations created by the rock and water. Your stormy skies are a trademark, I'm enjoying them. 2 minor points - the water appears a bit too green/cyan considering there doesn't appear to be sun hitting it - at least that is the way it appeared to me in Patagonia with some really green and blue water. It seems your name is always just touching the boarder of the image. I'd give it a little space. :biggrin: While it doesn't really affect the image per se, just my overall impression when I view the image presented here.

Very nice Jose! I do like these stormy skies you seem to capture too. The foreground rock formation and swirling water looks really cool! All the water motion works really well here and the streaking lines look wonderful. All even better in the large version. Nice work!

Water loop it is, Jose. Detail is excellent on this one especially as seen in the larger version. Once again, the very complimentary stormy sky to add to this scene too. :cool:

Fantastic and dynamic work, the water action around the foreground rock is fascinating

Another crackling good ocean scene. The swirl adds a lot of interest...even in the thumbnail... oohh...ahhh... Your expected top notch handling of light and shutter speed to get the best out of the water motion. Well done!

The large version puts me right there Jose! Love the near/far perspective.

Jose,

Fabulous composition with the receding wave patterns taking center stage. No nits or suggestions; a great seascape.

It has a nice balance of elements and your signature water texture. Great job! :toast:
