Setting Sun
Got out with good 'ol Eric H tonight and got some nice wave action along the coast. I thought this one was best converted to B&W.

Great shot, Rick, but it seems oversharpened.

Rick, I like the B&W treatment. The movement of the waves look like brush strokes in a painting. They create a great texture. I like your choice of shutter speed. The placement of the rocks keep the viewer's eye moving nicely within the frame. My only nit is the horizon. Looks a bit off.

Love the shutter speed choice and B&W treatment, that really helps with the drama.

Great shot Rick, I really like the way the clouds kind of mimic the waves.
