 It's SX 60 not SX50, but that's not in the data base.

I really liked the river of surf caused by the stormy weather lately.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Lovely exposure, great tones, beautiful scenery to die for, wonderful postcard shot...but I am looking for something like a person in the midground walking/running down the hillside to add interest and bring another dimension to this shot. Dare I also say a little too much sky? There is already so much blue in sky/water that the coastline, mountains and even grass almost struggle to be seen.

Hope this helps

Susan

Beautiful shot. The waves make such great leading lines. Perfect composition.
