Am liking the DoF & composition on this shot, lovely colours too!

yep........
nice

Really neat shot. Looking at it almost makes me feel anxious. The stone looks to be perched there so precariously, as if you caught it during its roll to the edge.

egg... :P

The bokeh (I love that word) and colours are brilliant, really zen'esque kind of shot.

Great to have you back Dave - i've been craving my fix of Chromasia ;) And welcome back with a great shot too. Love the colours :)

Mark stated my thoughts exactly. Ironic you titled this photo "Comfort.." because looking at it makes me feel anxious! That rock or egg or whatever it is is about to fall off.

I like the way the colours/shades of what is in focus matches the colours/shades in the background (i.e.dark to light). Egg, ball, planet, rock it does seem precarious. My sons would love that rock.

Great shot. Thank you.

This is such a typical Chromasia shot to me... You write that you feel like home at that beach, I feel like home when a shot like this pops up on my screen (I've had Chromasia as start page for half a year now). However, there are something which distrubs me in the picture, but now as much as I'm happy about getting this familiar feeling when my browser opens. Thanks. Cheers.

Hurrah, glad to see you're back again.!

A beautiful shot to come back with. I hope you and your family are all feeling better.

I like the foreground a lot but the bokeh on the pier (at least I'm assuming it's a pier) is a bit distrcting. It's got kind of a harsh quality to it that draws you're eye into it a bit too forcibly IMO. Colours are lovely throughout though.

Errr.. My spelling and grammar aren't normally that bad, I promise. Add an A into 'distrcting' and 'you're' should of course be 'your'. Apologies.

The Earth balanced on a anvil.

Would be nice for still life...I like the colors and DoF like everyone else too. Just very nice and simple. Missed your daily photos David.

Very nice indeed!

Glad I am not the only one that comes here longing for the daily fix and disappointed to not have an update. Brilliant way to come back too! Your style is really shown off in this one.

Oh, very lovely.

very nice photo! gratulation!

zen?

great work!

This is just lovely. Thank you!

I hope that you are ok and not suffering too badly with whatever is going on in your life. I've been there and done that after a business collapse and serious illness. It was a sobering time.
Stay strong.

Beutiful !!!!!!! many many compliments

There's a tension in this that I can't quite explain to myself. Perhaps it's a dread that the rock will roll off its perch. The distant pier is deliciously out of focus.

wowowow!

i love this !
the colors, the composition......
lovely

Thanks everyone. And I know I only missed a few days, but it seemed like ages.

Oh, and I should have said: it's a rock (rather than an egg or something made out of wood.

I've been visiting your website since a couple of days now and I am shocked... in a positive way of course ;) Most of your pictures are just brilliant and I allready know that I will learn of lot of them(excuse me for my English, I'm originally a Dutch bastard :p) Keep up the good work, you just won a new fan with it!

classic chromasia :)

hey dave, did u used gussian blur for the background

Really nice. If rocks could lay eggs, this would be it.

wow...

For some reason this one really appeals to me. The colors, textures and shapes are great. I feel like I could just stare at it.

Nice big contrast, and great light.
