Another beach picture!

They have both been slightly edited but nothing major or too far from the original picture that I took.

Hello there! I really like these. Personally, I like the color one better. I have to say, they would have been better if we could see more of the rocks. Did you crop these at all, or is that just how it came out? If so, I'd have taken a few steps back or zoomed out a bit so we could see more to the left and front. Otherwise, I love the deep blues and crashing of the waves. Makes me wish I could for once in my life see the ocean this close. Very nicely done!

Wow, these are both awesome!! Love 'em.
The black and white really makes the waves pop, but I think I like the color one a bit better, with all the nice blues and greens. I agree with Tayler that it might look better with more rocks, instead of just water. Well done!

Cool, I like these. The one with color definitely looks best though - after all, who doesn't love that gorgeous ocean-green when the waves go over the rocks? These are just gorgeous colors in general. I can kind of see that there was a cliff-ish area or other rocks around, and I kind of wish they were in the shot too to make it less simple, but it's still a nice picture.

Great shot! I really like the shape of the wave.
I have to echo what people have already been saying I'd like to see more of the rocks, just cuz they look cut off at the bottom. Also, the colored picture is by far the better one. You really cranked up the saturation on that one, didn't you? x) I've never seen waves that blue...

The only other thing I have to add is that on the colored pic, the color of the sky blends very closely with the color of the sea. Personally, I would do more editing so that the sky is a much lighter, clearer shade of blue so that the waves stand out more. But that's just me

Great job!!

N.Z sea is that blue a lot! What beach was this taken at cutejackrussal?

Hello there.

These are both beautiful. I have a thing for black and white, and I'm truly obsessed with it, but somehow, the one you took is not my favorite. I like it, really, but compared to the other one...

I love the way the color makes it look alive. I don't really know which words to describe it.

Anyways, I love love love the color one. It gives a little something more that the black and white doesn't seem to have.

Keep up the good work!

Ooh...pretty! I love both of these. Actually I especially like the black and white one. Everyone knows that the ocean is blue, but the black and white really emphasizes the foam to water to sky contrast--beautiful. Nice work with these! I could totally see it in one of those long frames with white matte...
