"We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic" (lyrics- Van Morrison "Into the Mystic")

A nice and dramatic shot!
A bit to dark perhaps - I would like to see the original in colour!
Regards
Franz

I love this photo!! Seascapes in B&W can be really powerful and this one is just that. The waterline is skewed just a little to the right-- an easy correction. Cheers. Craig

Hi Paul, Stunning shot, the hard contrast work very well, and the framing of the thundering surfs by the rock and the tree is excellent. It would be awesome to blow this one up to a considerable poster sized print and frame it... Only the tilt in the horizon needs some correcting, as it seems to be slightly tilted.

I've added this one to my favourites:)

Cheers,

Hugo

Very attractive shot made in very difficult light conditions. Great composition and contrasts. I like the sun that hits the upper, small branches too.
Cheers, Paolo

This one for the books... I love the composition, if you look hard enough you would think that the rock on the right makes up a head of a female lion. The white of the waves are such great compliment to the darkness of the tree and the rocks.

By the way the lyrics are not bad at all and very appropriate to the mood of the piece.

I like all three: the photo, the lyrics and the title with its double meaning, poiunting twards being drunk, perhaps with beauty.
Thank you for your comment on my "Reflected house".

Neal Nye   {K:15827} 6/22/2004
Beautiful dramatic image. Such a nice job of capturing and projecting the power of the elements. I think the diagonal lines in the composition really emphasize that. As does the choice of black and white. Very nice.
