well said! always get so fascinated by your landscape shots.. the wave’s so beautiful here and the golden light on the beach’s so perfect.. now I understand the importance of filters.

Happy easter sunday to you too!
E-Rocks 04.12.09 / 12pm 19

Stunning. Did you decide not to level the horizon?
uberfischer 04.12.09 / 12pm 20

Congrats on Explore! Love this pic…such an ambient scene :)
photofool 04.12.09 / 12pm 23

@E-Rocks & uberfischer: it’s hard to tell with the waves. I think the curve wave pattern also adds to the illusion. I re-measured the actual horizon (furthest horizontal line) in the original file, 0.25° off! I think I’ll leave it alone and beg my viewers for forgiveness :)
