I could certainly echo that sentiment, but like you I don't feel I shall ever tire of doing so, as a self confessed coast hugger, there's no place better, as for this, a strong image which draws you in, a minor point is with the last post being in shadow, was this an intended step? lovely nonetheless...

Great effect, the eye is drawn out to sea (or maybe out beneath the sea). The BW conversion is excellent with good contrast and range of tones. The sharpness is generally good, but we find ourselves wishing for the focus point to be on the nearest beam and the foam.

I second that emotion!
I agree with shooter: there's no subject better than the sea. It draws you back time & time again. :-)

I'll be short, as always. I LOVE IT!

Another nice one! I really like all the white in this. The foam in the water matches the clouds and leads your eye deep info the photo with the pilings pointing the way. Stark, yet peaceful. Very nice!

Puhleeeeze don't get fed up photographing the sea! It helps us to remember how small we are. I love the B&W... I can hear the foam. Looks like those posts could march on for miles into the depths. Great moment.

Thanks all.
Shooter: you're right, the final post was a bit dark - I've posted a new version where it's a bit lighter.

Very nice image! I like the very white and black parts of the sea a lot. The sky/clouds also look fantastic.

I think it is overall a beautiful image. I specially like the white foam and your great toning.

all of your shots are very amazing ...

Incredible contrast on the waves - yet you still maintain stunning detail. I wouldn't think of shooting something like this in a million years!
At some point in the future I may well get fed up with photographing the sea, but I don't think it's going to happen any time soon :-)
