This is a little dark for my tastes, I really don't care much for B&W so am not a good judge of them; the shot has great depth of field; but what impresses most is the interplay of the violence in the waves at the top juxtaposed to the calm waters in the foreground, one could find several levels of meaning in that. This has given some ideas for shots to work on the next time I get to go to the ocean.
Second look at this one and I'm bumping this one up a little. I love the low perspective and you have some really good tonal range, but the sun appears to be blown out. 8
One of my favorites so far -- a visual feast. Great DOF from the foreground rocks to the lovely crashing wave in the back. The light on the water is gorgeous.
The only think I don't like are those unnatural looking black clouds that pull my eyes away up to the corners.
Yes, you've done it, that's what I'm looking for. Great DOF, composition and dramatic subject, pure white to pure black with every shades in between. Well done! 10
