stunner Mel

geez Karin beat me to it

Fantastic work,great f/ground subjects so clear & that b/ground adds plenty of depth

Wonderful composition, use of the pattern and lines and colors are amazing!

Breath-taking colour.

Its funny Mel, I was just telling hubby tonight that if you ever found your way to Tasmania, I would invite you over for coffee then kidnap you so I could pick your brains for a week. He reckons I would release you after the first 3am start you would be sure to browbeat me into.

This is bloody sensational btw.

Fantastic shot. Well done.

beautiful mel!

I love hint of red reflection that you’ve captured in the ocean waves but what really captures my attention is the composition of the rounded pools with their island stones in the foreground. Great work.

Wow!! This is just stunning. Love the gorgeous colours.

Nice perspective, but hey…. we have to expect that.

Wonderful composition Mel

a very interesting perspective..wonderful result

ROFL @ “Is there an oversaturated group?” LOL – You and photoshop :)

This is one of those glory shots Mel, the one where it catches the eye instanly from the thumbnail that it’s going to be something extra special. The lighting within the little boulder pool (they’re hardly rocks) is just to die for – A real dream capture. Nice vigentte style bordering on the skyline too.

Stunning shot Mel….beautiful view!

Excellent shot!!.. beautiful color & lighting, perfectly timed with the sun just peaking over the cloud! Fabulous rock and sand detail!!

Just one magical shot, your composition, color and focus are just excellent-if I had the wall space I would buy this image to look at all day, but my walls are already full to the hilt and heaps more framed works that don’t have a home! This is definitely one of my faves on this group…nice work :-)
