I was going to mention the "postcardy" thing, but I see your reasons for not having it in your comments. As a result, I will comment strictly on the picture quality. (Note, I think it would make a nice postcard even without a "caption")
First of all, the lighting and focus on this is really good. The details in the rocks, water, and trees is visible and it has good clarity to it. I also like the different "layers" in the pictue. The water, then then rock structure, the the sky. It gives it a good solid feeling without being static, and the eye has several different things to look out without being overwhelmed. At first, I thought there was too much sky, but upon reevaluation, I think it balances nicely withe water.
The only thing I can suggest to improve this shot is to frame it a little more to the right so that more water, and less land, is showing. The shot looks cold to me, for some reason, but unless you are GOD, I don't think you can change that.
Very interesting. I imagine those big waves could be a bit intimidating.
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to PM me. Nice work, and best to you in future challenges.
Thanks for the comments everyone. I wish the lighting could have been better, but when working with the incredible tides here, it's all in the timing!! As it was, I came home with extremely muddy and wet shoes!!

RE: text - I thought we were to take a photo that would make a good postcard, not make a good postcard... oops!!!
This is a nice photo, but without some kind of knowledge of what it is exactly, or even WHERE it is, I don't think i'd buy it as a postcard. About the image though, it's a wonderful shot. The sky is great, and I like the angle and framing/cropping you chose. Especially how you have the foam in the bottom left corner. nice. ~Heather~
Very postcardy, and technically speaking a beautiful shot. The only thing that kept it at 9 and not 10 for me was a lack of a certain spung, that magic 'Wow!' spark. But I have to save 10s for *something*, right? :->
certainly a crisp, picture postcard day! Why did you choose to leave off any text? Borders are not necessary either to make a good postcard, but often add a lot in terms of finishing and polish. :)
Beautiful colours. This must be The Rocks by Fundy. Great place to take photographs. Hopefully I'll get there this summer. Thank you for sharing. Jacko. 10
Ahh, Bay of Fundy? I visited there briefly last Fall on a motorcycle trip.
I think a bit closer crop on the outcropping (pun intended) would be benificial. Only one opinion though
Beautiful image! This would make a great postcard shot. The sky color is very smooth I like that, and the focus looks pretty crisp all throughout. well done.
