Beautiful! The contrast is perfect. I love the white foam as the water breaks over the rocks.

Looks like a Brad P shot. Whoever it is, must be tough to hop into the car and head down to the coast where you're sure to get a nice shot! ;-) Very nice conversion to black and white, great contrast along the rocks and a good range of tones. Good pic.

Hi! Here’s a comment from the Critique Club.

First Impression:
My eyes went to the black trees, the white sky, then the road area and the sign. The dark trees and white sky kept drawing my eyes away from the road. Very distracting.

Composition:
Very central oriented. May have been more interesting if you reduced the sky and included more of the road. Either move back or point down. I like the way the road leads my eyes down to the end.

Subject:
Met the challenge, but you may have focused more on the sign than the road.

Technical:
Since you didn’t include any details or text on what you were trying to achieve, I can only comment on what I see. Picture has a lot of contrast with very little detail. You lost a lot of detail in the shadows. The road perspective was effective so cropping the trees and sky may have helped.

Summary:
Picture has potential with some additional post processing steps. The road component is working, but the trees and sky compete for attention.

Great inspirational photo. Very clean and simple, yet says a lot. Good comp, and it works well as a silhouette. I love the warm, rich tones of the sun. Nice job :-)
