What a gorgeous shot! Everything here works very well for me. The colors, the comp an amazing sun burst and the recognizable gulls flying through the shot. I am adding this one to my favorites. #1551337Dale Hardin November 04, 2013
It's a beauty all right. Makes me want to head to the beach again. #10891175Susan Williams November 05, 2013
I wholeheartedly agree with Mike and Dale. Beautiful shot, well-composed, wonderful lighting, beautiful colors and strong drama in the sky. The texture of the sand and the motion of the waves really make it stellar. #10891299Debbra Bailey November 05, 2013
