. . there is a big wave waiting to engulf you down there ! :) Fortunately my Panasonic FZ7 has IS, otherwise it would have been apparent how much I was shaking as I took this. North Otago coast, New Zealand. Comments/Opinions most welcome, enjoyed and appreciated.

A very nice view but not for those with vertigo! Looks very good on full screen.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

There have been some very nice cliff views at the rocks below posts lately Lyn. This is one of them. All of them make me hear the water slapping against the shore. In sports terms, I think it is high fiving the rocks. Good colors and angle.

A nice view from the cliff Lyn. Good thing you didn't slip and fall in. Good clarity & colour.

Too late! I looked! lol You need someone holding onto you with a rope if you're going to take this kind of shot, Eve! We don't want to lose you! That's a mighty impressive view though! Wonderful shot!

This is a keeper. The water is so natural in color and texture, I could jump in it. However, the grass, rocks etc is ok but almost over sharpened it seems. Still, a great desktop.

A really good shoreline image Lyn. But this one really had you suffering for your art didn't it?

Once again you took your life in your hands for your art LE. To be honest I reckon this would look better from a bunjie jump. Or maybe a paraglide.....could you go back and have another go? ;-) Terrific shot, full of wildness and power.
