This has some nice shapes and textures. However, I think it lacks the focal point that is present in in your other work. The light in this is wonderful; soft and luminous, and does speak of the silence of near dusk at the ocean.
Well named, Anil. I really like the angle of view with the small amount of still water in the upper RHC, it works very well here.

wonderful colors and composition! Larger rocks on lower left compliment the water on upper right, well done!

Anil,
I think I failed to comment on this in ESS....
A wonderful and perfect addition to your series. I'm wondering about the "near silence," I for one can hear(imagine) the sound that the water makes retreating over the rocks - and it's a distinct sound for me. Since that might be the only sound, is that why you chose "near silence?"
I continue to be amazed at the scenes you find on what are likely common beaches along the coast - and many things so many of us pass on by.
Excellent Anil!

Anil, this kind of images fly above my head. I have no clue what to say (may be because i am a beginner). I like the shiny pebbles, i do see a diagonal formation from lower left to upper right.
