I am not sure the result justified the effort of lying on a damp beach with a chill wind coming off the sea to get this shot. I am too old to spend my Sunday afternoon that way but I hope it captured a bit of the wildness of the place before the storm broke. North Otago coast, New Zealand

This is a great perspective LE and your are a dedicated photographer to bear the elements for art. I think you forgot to take your sock in the foreground. Fantastico!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

I think your effort paid off very well, it gives a very good angle of this moody capture. This moment was not lost because you saw a good photo opt., and went for it. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Looks more like a Painting than a Photo Lyn.

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By. Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience

The effort was worthwhile Lyn. Besides one needs to exercise a bit when one gets old. I do 25 minutes everyday. The low view looks very good with the threatening clouds and the apprehensive looking seagulls.

What we won't do for a shot , Lyn ...
Your braving the elements paid off in a big way.
Beautiful tones and another killer sky .

As long as you can get up LE, you are not to old to lay down for a photo shoot.
Excellent perspective.

Those clouds are getting blacker and blacker. I hope they blew over and the sun came out again. Great image.

The gulls don't seem to be bothered a bit by the storm clouds. Exceptional shot, Lyn.
