marvelous, one of my favourites.

Lighting, colour and composition are perfect! One small (very small) point is that I cant really see a focal point... everything seems abit too fuzzy, I would have liked abit more focus.

Other than an excellent image.

I agree with creative666.

This is really fantastic.

Zennnnnnnnnn.

Waiting for that perfect wave... the division of space works well.

Primo deluxe! You've captured a mood so very well with this shot, a 'focus' that compensates for the lack of crispness in the photo itself. It appears the depth of field is fairly narrow and runs left-to-right in the sand through the middle of the image, but in all reality I think this shot is fine the way it is. Too much focus would have distracted me from actually feeling the scene, instead drawing my eye repeatedly to review unnecessary details. I think we, as photographers, get hung up on sharpness sometimes. This is one of those shots where that mentality deserves to be set aside. Another fantastic shot!

Thanks for the comments everyone. This photo came about by chance as I did not stage this one.
