Oh Jeeeez! That is so beautiful! After having spent a week on the Pacific Coast last September, hoping desperately to get something along this line, I appreciate even more what it takes to get a shot like this. The weather on the ocean is typically so uncooperative for clear and still. Congratulations on perfection! So award worthy!
