Mooi Konrad. The washing of the colours on the water makes it special.

Awesome minimalist seascape. Konrad or Philip? Kogel Bay? If it's still winter would have been shot early August?

Southern hemisphere eh? :)
Wonderful complementary orange and blue hues. Love the still rocks and their texture complementing the chaotic yet smooth water all around them. Nicely done.
