Hi Tony,

This is a stunning image, with amazing colours, light and form. I love the curve of the of the waterline and including the people on the beach give a real feel for the scale of the outcrop. I really, really nice image.

merhaba dear Tony,
Nice to see such a great landscape shot from New Zealand. I think that nowadays end of summer. On the contrary, spring is coming slowly here. Te Henga is very beautiful place and its photograph consists of great scene. Superb coloration. Nicely composed. White cloudy sky and sea with small wavies.
This is also nice dedication for our joint friend James. Thanks for sharing. best wishes my dear friend

This is what I call a landscape picture, wow Tony, it is magnificent! The colours are so saturated and beautiful, it's almost as if the ocean was in front of me and I could swim in it. I cannot believe there such beautiful beaches with nobody there! The sharpness is amazing, I really don't know how you do it. Thank you for this wonderful sight and kind dedication to James,

So all I can say is that it is a lovely picture any one would feel honored to have dedicated to.I absolutely agree with Bob that you are amazing with your landscape pictures.You really have an eye to arrest all those lovely scenes in your camera.

Hi Tony,

This picture makes me think you directed the flow of the water and where it should hit the shore and ordered a certain cloud and where it should be placed. This is a BEAUTIFUL scene and perfect in every way. The curve of the water compliments the wonderful rock. Colors are just amazing and the composition is out of this world.

Hello Tony,
Beautiful Sea/landscape image showing Bethell's Rock in a brilliant composition that contrasts the large part of the bay in the BG with the small in the FG. The two combine to form a heart shaped curvature of the bay shoreline. Lovely colours of the sea and the sky.
Well done and thanks for sharing this superb view,

To see this place and die! This is my first reaction when I saw your picture! Beautiful composition and very vivid, perfectly saturated colours. The "work" which was made by the sea is very impressive, and the plant ability to colonize every part of land which can be colonized - even more impressive :)
Nothing to add, maybe only something like this: have a very nice weekend! :)
