Please tell me that you don’t just take pictures of these of these insanely beautiful places ! I would imagine a day at the beach and maybe a picnic…............pretty please…...because It’s so gorgeous !!!!

Irene Burdell, 2 months ago

Stunning work and I love the sun’s reflection on the water , beautiful.

Stuart Chapman, 2 months ago

Really love the low angle Mel and that light on the massive slab in the forground is brilliant, it really brings the textures to life. The water movement around the rocks is a perfect white sheen – i’m still in total envy with the way your water moves! This is really bright and shows why it’s always worth getting up that early to see such an amazing spectacle.

wonderful seascape!

Travis Easton, 2 months ago

Amazing pic Mel, love the forground interest and flowing water. Well done balancing that massive contrast too, is it a HDR?

Mel Brackstone in reply to Travis Easton’s comment, 2 months ago

I used ReDynaMix on a duplicate layer, Travis, and then blended it back in. It’s a single file pseudo HDR thingy…..but I tend to drop the opacity quite a bit. Curves brings up the colours and contrast.

very cool image ……..where is this taken

Thanks Wolf, it was taken at Coolum, Queensland

Mel Brackstone in reply to John Pitman’s comment, 2 months ago

Thanks John, I use Lee ND graduated filters to cut the light from the sun a little.

David Robinson, 2 months ago

Fabulous seascape – great composition and the colours are amazing! Wonderful!

You’d get very wet having a picnic here, Lisa :) There are picnic tables at the top of the cliff though!

Mel, I half expect Paul to climb up from behind that rock!
Wow, a return to your amazing seascapes… I was getting the first withrawal symptoms, so thanks for posting this stunner. Those pastels are too amazing for words. You should do what Robert Mullner did and put a massive selection together on one page. That would be so enormous!
Beautiful work as usual from a true artist who paints inspiration on every wall of every room in our minds. XO.

This is simply stunning, Mel. The composition is perfect (as usual) but the way you have captured the water is just awesome. I favourited it before I commented (I don’t do that often).
