Faro de Favàritx (Menorca)

De cada vez más disfruto usando focales cortas, la persepectiva es más sorprendente. La saturación del cielo es esplendia, así como la nitidez y detalles del terreno. Cada dia de verano el faro se llena de fotografos para fotografiar la puesta de sol, aún así, el lugar es impresionantemente bello y sugerente

Une jolie profondeur dans cette photo entre la courbe rocheuse de la côte qui nous mène au phare et le ciel qui semble s'éclater en dizaines de balles cotonneuses.

Wonderful interplay between the sky and those fantastic rock textures pulling the eye to the lighthouse.

Jolie composition. Les couleurs évoquent un léger froid mais on a envie malgré tout de s'asseoir sur ces rochers pour admirer la mer

La composición de las texturas por excelencia! Un celaje perfecto que diria Belén! y las texturas de la piedra de la costa destacando potentes en contraste con la suavidad algodonosa de las nubes. una maravilla. Una composición muy buena amigo! Un abrazo y feliz sábado! Adela

This rocky coast explains the need for a lighthouse. This is a beautiful one. The composition and nice light are wonderful.

The stunning part of this shot Francisco is the way that the clouds perfectly recreate the striations in the rock patterns, a great find!

The title is so inspiredly chosen as all elements seem to converge on the lighthouse! A depth that sucks me into the screen! Excellent capture! I also like the solitude of the lighthouse....

Love how the strata reflect the pattern of clouds here . . as if all is one. Which, I guess, it is.

Reno from Cd de México, Mexico

Hermoso juego de líneas entre el cielo y las rocas del primer plano, como un círculo se va formando...Las texturas y ese efecto compositivo transmiten tranquilidad y energía a la vez. Unos tonos muy Grouserianos!

There's a definite sense of movement in this image. I think the clouds, the angling of the rock, very well taken.
