The lighting here is tangible - a worthy winner. One of very few shots I can think of on this site where the light has such a strong role to play. There's a shot of Sydney Bridge in my favourites that has a similarly impactful vibe. |

I don't know how close Cannon Beach is to Gold Beach (I said Gold Coast earlier, I always mix that up).. but I knew it was *somewhere* in Oregon :) My favorite coastline!
Anyway, as I said, congratulations on the ribbon. It wasn't one of my favorite shots of the challenge, but it really is a beautiful photograph.

Thank you everybody for you wonderful comments and votes (no ones!). Thank you God for creating such a beautiful view and letting me capture it at this moment. This is your glory, not mine.
It was pretty cool to arrive at this view point, hope for a sun break and get it within ten minutes, there it broke out! Then I had less then 10 minutes of vibrant sun on the rock, and as you can see, I made the best of it. I am just the messenger of this beautiful scene.
Here is the original. |

The best of the landscape photos. The fact that the trees are further away and still framed it is what makes it along with the great sunlighting. Super job. |

This is one of my highest votes - even though a) I don't think there's much of a frame and b) The border detracts. But the water, sky, rocks, and beach in wonderful lighting make up for the faults - and then some. |

Rediculously amazing. The DOF is flawless. The colors are enchanting. The mist is magical. The little dots on the beach look like people, giving the whole scene a sense of majestic proportion. If I could give this picture a 11, I would. This photo is going straight to my favorites list. |

Do i sense the hand of the perilous Neatimage here? it has something of that slightly exaggerated sharpening and loss of detail inother areas that can come from that. That said - wonderful moment, wonderful light, great composition - with the proviso that it feels a touch too centrally balanced: I think framing this with the most important subjects more thoroughly ditricuted around frame would give it a greater sense of stability: for instance, nice as the light in the clouds is, lsoing a little of it would place that largest rock more strongly, and i think the whole image would come together that bit more strongly - and trying it by scrolling to obscure just below that topmost branch seems to back that up. Have you tried that? Otherwise, a very fine shot indeed. 7 |

I would love to see another branch to complete the frame across the top/right of the picture. I might have cropped this just below the beginning of that top branch on the left.
Good shot, though! |

Lovely - nice catch - nice framing - I like how the trees mimick the movement of the waves, the sand and the hills - everything seems to swerve to the right except the upright rocks that stans strong. the sky seems to hint of rainbow. |

Is this out by Gold Coast, OR? what a fantastic picture.. WOW. A *little* weak on the framing idea, (it seems to me like it was a quick throw in) but it certainly does add something to the photograph. 7 |
