I have to be honest....I grew up here and have shot this exact same scene at least a 1000 times...

This seems flat to me and a bit soft.

if you go through the tunnel to the other side of the beach there are much better rocks over there.

Heh. I was on Tunnel Beach on Friday night. Definitely much better rocks over there, especially when the tides cooperate. The tides were not cooperating very much on friday though. I'll post something later.

I like the color in this image - what makes this a good image for me is the Fg ripples that are reflected on the beach - I am going there this weekend !

Pradeep! I reside 15 minutes from your shooting location but gave up on any dream of chancing the drive for a sunset shoot when the sky finally went completely blue with no color or clouds after a weekend of total rain... (6pm Sunday) How did you know?
You captured the feel of this scene perfectly with a single shot.

Great texture in the foreground, Pradeep.. I've been going to that beach since the early 70's and I really like it there..

Larry - we just wanted to drive to Tillamook since the weather turned nice on Sunday. This was taken around 8.15 PM but we were there from 5.30 onwards.

Pradeep I love the way you avoided the temptation to work some warm colors into the frame, this way the different blues carry the composition.
