Unchanging Change

[escape]

Waves rise and fall in a ceaseless rhythm,
timeless—ever-present, yet never the same.
A rhythm of movement, a dance without end.

When I look at this image, I sense a soft, almost dreamlike atmosphere.
The waves crashing forcefully against the rocks create a mist-like effect, wrapping everything in a pale veil that enhances the feeling of mystery. The lighter, almost monochromatic tones evoke a peculiar calmness, despite the energy of the waves.
The composition draws my eye along the foamy crests, as if I could hear the roar of the water colliding with the stone.

Perhaps a touch more contrast would bring out the textures more distinctly, but I appreciate how the scene merges into a single entity rock/sea, and mist entwined in a fleeting moment.

I like that, Antonio. Sometimes, when I see Photos of the ocean posted, I can hear and feel it. The image can use some adjustments. I do what I can with my limited know-how, and frankly, I'm not into spending a lot of time on an image. I do think this image could use a bit of the top. Thank you for commenting.

Well, I do the opposite !
I spend a lot of time refining a photograph, and over time, I've learned a great deal.
I now successfully apply the finest adjustments in both LR and CS, allowing me to achieve more or less what I have in mind when I start working on an image.

On the other hand, I'm a complete fanatic for exquisite - and expensive - lenses !
