I took this photo at Ventura Beach in California. The rock formations there are very unusual. It is very close to the water and you can actually walk around there quite freely.

Thank you to the following groups for featuring Ventura Beach Rocks. It is very much appreciated. You are awesome. :hug:

Ok, at first I'd love to say this is a very gorgeous photo. The water is so blue! I like how the waves are crashing into the rocks, it just makes it beautiful. The impact is awesome. The vision- The vision is super creative. Now, the texture. It's terrific! The grass, the rocks, and the waves. So beautiful! You should take a lot of photos of these wonderfully beautiful photos. How I love photos similar to these! I'm going to fave this awesome photo. Great job, keep up the lovely work! One of the loveliest ive ever seen! Good Bye!

Nice job! Lovely photo, it definitely stands out from the rest - the reason why I gave 4.5 on vision and impact.

I'm decent at photography, not the best, but I know some stuff. Personally, I would've tilted the camera and tried to get the horizon in the view, as this kinda looks down on the setting, so it's hard to 'be there'. Gave a 3.5 on technique, sorry :(
Maybe you could've just lied down so you're seeing the ground, the rocks and the horizon. That would've been better.

A good thing about the photo is, though, the calmness of the place. I can only assume from this picture that there isn't any annoying noises, screaming kids, or giant waves, it feels so peaceful.


All in all, this photo is excellent. On a canvas or in a frame on a wall, 30"x50" at least, it would be amazing :D
Nice work, keep it up and best wishes for the future :)

I love the slightly faded colors in this.

Thank you very much. The water is very shallow there maybe that is the reason for that particular fade you are referring to. I am pleased you like it.

You did good at capturing the color of the water an rocks, and the white of the foaming water does add some interest to this photo, but with that said, I'm not finding the whole thing all that interesting or expressive.
Technical aspects of the shot are good, but the artistic side of it leaves me wanting.
