thanks, the location is a beach just 30mins away from where I live. it may not look like it but the day wasn't the warmest. who says you can't shoot when there isn't a cloud in the sky :)

First one is best..but have you played with the levels any? I'd liked to see the midrange lightened a bit.

If I lived in NZ, I would be shooting all of the time. You have the most gorgeous scenery. I like both shots but the first is my favorite.
