The setting is so nice and crisp and colorful. Wonderful capture.
The splash of the wave seems to make it all look a bit crammed though. I would've liked it more without the splash.

The surf splash makes this image for me.

Cool picture. My picture for this free study was taken at the same place.

Nice BIF. Overall this feels a little soft, it could be the processing, or the shot itself, but it's just lacking that crispness that makes a shot really great. Still, a good composition, and nice subject.. 7.

Beautiful landscape. Maine is such an amazing place! Love the seagull. My only gripe is the powerful foamy wave is pulling my eyes towards it and distracting me from the overall scene. Maybe a faster shutter speed with stopped wave would have helped in giving it the wow factor.

A unexpected splash turns this cliche image into something more.

I'm normally not a fan of this really vivid post-processing, but it works quite well here I think, and motion blur on the spray is great.

love that lighthouse, think it would have been better without the splashing wave as it keeps drawing my attention.
