In the east coastline of Asturias (Spain) the cliffs are very porous forming with rough sea beautiful geysers, "bufones" as called here. Please see the following video in order to understand this natural curiosity.

Jose, This is especially beautiful in the large version! The rugged shoreline seems to go on and on and it is wonderful. I like the darkness of the overall scene too. The colors, geyser, mist, textures are all wonderful. The large version also lets one appreciate the beautiful sky. Now I will see if I can get the video to watch.

edit: I watched the video....wonderful. Enjoyed the music too!

Another beautiful seascape Jose and I like the dark processing in this. Great water and sky. Video was very nice also. Great job on this.

You do these seacoast scenes so well, Jose. The wave action, the rock formations and the sky all work beautifully together in this scene. I really like the mood here.

That's a neat bufone (geyser) and a very rugged landscape. The touches of color in the sky add a fine hint of warmth that contrasts well with the landscape and the rough sea.

Another beauty from the coast of Spain. The large view is super, I really like the light on the foreground rocks and everything else all the way through. Nice work Jose.

Very dramatic shoreline capture on its own and with the spray of water from the wave action tops it off into a catagory of its own. The series of a half dozen or more protrusions of the shoreline and soft light on rocks is stunning.

This could be a dramatic pano too from top down.

Well done Jose. We have few of these "bufones" or as we call them, "blow holes" here in Hawaii. You've inspired me to maybe take a shot of one of our own. I love the mood you capture in each of your photos.

Very cool composition, Jose. The scene looked a little dark at first but I think the mood is set right.This would be an amazing night capture as well. Nicely done!
