This was taken September of last year. I'd love some feedback. Some days I've liked it, some days I'm not so sure.

John you must have skipped the morning coffee on those days when you weren't so sure of liking this.
Wonderful image IMHO, I find so much that I love, including the water, rocks, sky and lighting that it's hard to decide on one favorite element.... it all works so nicely. Who doesn't love the coast, but your fondness for "beach sand" to me, always shows in your fine work. Again, the water here is just outstanding, it could almost stand alone with this water and leave the rocks off. Congratulations!

I agree, definitely like this one. The colors are nice, you definitely made the most out of the cloudless sky.

Serene simplicity, John. I love it.

I concur. A keeper. Serene, colorful.

I like it John, but maybe just a little more detail in the sea-stacks or complete silhouette. Also, it seems the edges of the sea-stacks are slightly soft. I love the colors though and the reflection has a nice abstract quality that I really like.

I like it today....tomorrow and on...I'll probably still like it. It is a great classic Oregon coast shot, well done.

I like it John. The composition is very solid and the blues and magentas look great. I'd definitely say it's a keeper.
