Another very peaceful image from this session, Mario. I like the effect of the ICM and lack of shoreline to create ambiguity in the direction the wave is moving.

Definitely another fabulous one! You hit a perfect SS to give a dreamy look and the composition is just right.

Yet another great ICM Mario. Sure looks like this evening was like a kid in a candy store… You came away with a bucket full!
I agree with Diane about the SS being just right - enough to soften the water, but also allowing the colors to really shine thru.
I’m a little torn on the darkness of the wave. I’m pretty sure I’m retaining a similar reaction I had to #2. Of course, all a matter of personal choice - no wrongs or rights here. I love the contrasting colors between the sky and water.
First impression? I think the dark, rounded out wave makes me think of a sea creature, yeah “Nellie” - if you get the reference. So for me, less peaceful and more dark and moody. Still, a very enjoyable and successful ICM.
