Alf Caruana
another excellent addition to the series, well done Mel
Peter Marin
I like your view on this Mel, the outline of the vessel is clearly visible. The patterns from the surf surging around is so calming to view. The stories this baby could tell if it could talk !

Basia McAuley
Love how you are able to capture movement of the water so perfectly.
Caroline Evans...
superb mood
Stuart Chapman
What I like most from this angle is that you can really see the shape of the boat so well from here. Water movement around the remains is as perfect as ever. You can almost here the water as it swooshes in and out.
Beautiful clouds which part to let in the light which then trips and hits the water at every moment that you want. Especially on the remains slap bang in the middle of the boat.
Tom Gomez
Wonderful. The whole series is outstanding …

Wow, this is stunning work Mel! I cant quite get my head around the scale of this but it looks vast! I love that! The contrast between the dark wood of the wreck and the white water is brilliant and I love the colour in the sky.. This is a brilliant series all full of favourites!

I have been back and forth through your entire gallery 3 times now, trying to find a piece that stands out from the rest, but they are
allso delightful, browsing through has been more of thrill of discovery at every turn than a task or chore. You have an eye for beauty, a talent for capturing life, you show an amazing personality with a clever and cheeky twist. I truely hope to achieve even a smidgeon of your brilliance one day. Thank you so much. Also, thank you for sharing the images of New Zealand, it’s nice to have a taste of home:)Peacefulwarrior
Wow, Wow, Wow…... shit another Wow!
