The rocks look like slate. Love how the light makes them glow softly. The curve of the waves is pretty.

This shot makes me want to visit the California coast again. I certainly love your coastline a lot more than the east coast.

I really like the long exposure on this.

Lovely scene. I like the White swirl of water drawing me into the pic but undecided about if I like the harshness of it and maybe would have this to be softer on the eye. The sky works and also rocks but not so much the water. 7

Wow - very insteresting capture. Great gradations in light and dark. I love this, even though it's quite abstract. Beautiful!
