A really beautiful shot. I like the amber tones of the beach and landscape and the darkness of the water. The sky is amazing too. Wonderful first post Ryan!
Hooray for winter! It's a cool shot, Ryan! It does have a winter look about it, great job on this! Welcome to the site! We look forward to seeing more of your work.
A friend of mine pointed out the images of shadows on the beach, which I was oblivious to. You can also see my shadow. I was only enchanted with the approaching cloud bank.
