Natures Creativity

The geology of a the coast is worth a study. The beach rocks and cliffs have their say in the natural world. These cliff faces have been weathered over a period of time ..and the resultant design. 
Had to do had-held, as I was already bathed in the fine sand along with my equipment. The sun had risen behind the cliff, and this was in the shadow part of the cliff.

Balan, this is a nice abstract scene, the punchy contrast you used in processing this adds a lot of impact. I also like your choice of a vertical composition, it creates some nice movement in the scene. I also think this would make for a striking B&W image as well. The dark area in the lower right hand corner is a minor distraction, I would consider a small crop from the bottom to minimize this element, but I would keep all of the long narrow mid-gray rock above it.

The textures and shapes look great here, Balan.  A fine looking, geological puzzle.

Great textures in the strata, and I like the spots of color. This is one of those images where experimenting with different crops would be fun.

Very nicely done, Balan. I will have to echo Ed's comments on this geological find. Looks like there would be lots of different compositions in this area.

Another great image from you. Perhaps your best although a weaker comp than your previous one. I would go with a 4x5  image of the upper part for a complex comp that still has good structure. The browns make this superior to a b&w.
