Description
Let the wind freeze my face muscles
Let my thoughts run faster than me
Let the night take over the eye sight
Let myself get lost, get out of reach

There is something special about this one.
Can you see what I mean?
Not the sunset colors or the composition. Not just the angle and perspective... something more. Can you see the strange triangles in the water current? It is not often you see such dynamics and it made the photo very unique. There are two wave breakers on each side and that creates the currents to cross. The key was to find the right angle and composition to benefit from that (from a photographers point of view). Once I knew how I wanted the frame to be I just waited for someone to cross the frame.

I loved the use of shapes, colors and scale. Also the shooting time gathering to strengthen the colors.
An simply beautiful image .

The vasteness of the sea (of the nature, in a sense) and the smallness of the human being.

That's incredible. The person helps put it into scale, but the perspective is still surreal.

wonderful image, I noticed you said it was shot with a 70-200, was there any perspective adjustments made in post, or is this just the compression effect from the lens?

The triangles were the first thing I saw.
Triangles are magic and can make almost anything more wonderful.
