For a place called El Silencio, this image speaks pretty loudly Jose! Love the way the warm light on the horizon breaks the somber mood.

Jose,

Another beautiful seascape. The receding water up front really draws the eye right in to the frame. And that color and glow deep on the horizon is wonderful.

Only other comment is that to me it looks like the water at the bottom has a slight lean towards magenta? Maybe it's just me and perhaps the dark sand is contributing. Just an observation, not really a nit.

A beautiful image, Jose. Those FG receding water lines take me rater nicely into the scene toward the wonderful drama and color in the sky. Real nice.

I always thought Spain was a very sunny country, but somehow you keep making these photos with fantastic clouds! Another beauty!
