Reeks of a quiet, calm and lonely beach. Very special! :toast:

Hi Ronald,

The large version is very cool. The DOF blend worked very well. Lovely detail in the foreground and a super reflection.

This is a neat view, Ronald. The foreground rocks and the ridge look very sharp, but then sea stack is disappearing nicely and the sky sure says fog. What a lovely, peaceful view.

This is a beautiful image, fog or no fog. The round stones in the FG - great touch
