“I love sea stacks so I can appreciate the appeal of this scene. I also like the relationship between the two different formations and the how the waves connect them. I think I would have experimented with some subtle movements to adjust the composition and make the foreground formation less dominant. I also think this scene would benefit from some softer morning light or at sunset.”

“Powerful composition”

“Beautiful shot”
