A.M. Ruttle
Lovely, and even more beautiful sitting here landlocked in Wyoming! Congrats on the Feature! Captivating light, practically glows off the page; did you do any unusual corrections after the capture? Good caption too!
Garth Smith replied
No A.M.Ruttle. The only post work was cropping a bit of land from the bottom. The colour is how we get it on sunny afternoons but the offshore wind conditions do help focus the light in the back of the waves.

Onya! Garth on the feature.
