excellent work, Tony.
This photograph has a real ‘stand out’ quality.
I love the contrast between the soft white clouds, smooth deep coloured aqua water and the sharp character of the rocks.
Tony Middleton replied

hi Jared,
Yeah those features are what I had pre-visualised before making this latest trip to the area so it’s satisfying when something comes off.
thanks !
