I echo what our moderator said: "you have a fantastic photographic eye."

That first shot made me remark out loud. I need to show that to my wife. It is magnificent, captured at the moment the waves crashed against the wall (or whatever that is out there), excellent exposure. Just a phenomenal shot. It's one thing to know how to use the camera, and clearly you do, but it's quite another thing to see in advance what the shot could be, set up, wait and get it. You have done that, I wish I had more of that ability.

The second shot - 30 second exposure - well thought out. The water looks smooth, there is a little bit of motion blur in the clouds, not bad. Point is the viewer's eye is not drawn to all the ripple and whitecaps and details floating on the water. The smooth water makes us rest on the sweeping line of the roadway. Again, I've read about this. I know how to do it. You saw that this shot would be better for using this technique, you set up for it and got it. Inspirational.

All the shots are beautiful. I'll stop here!

Thank you Joseph, very kind of you!
