Good movement in your photo. Colors are good, detail is sharp. The white wave is distracting as it appears to be blown our and the white draws the eye away from the rest of the photo. Tried to get detail into the wave but was not successful.

I kept the wave as I thought it added a perspective. I actually used dodge/highlight to make it stand out. I will see what it looks like with wave cropped out. Thank you for comment!   Posted: 01/12/2018 13:16:34

Love the color, textures composition and movement. The focus does go to the wave and the burst of water which I think is great. I agree though that the white is blown. I wander if there is a way to clone or use healing brush to fix. I like the wave action and location a lot. I tried a quick try with NIK Viveza. Probably could use some tweaking.   Posted: 01/12/2018 13:37:25

I love the processing, textures and colours. The composition works for me as it gives a good contrast in tones between the waves and the rocks. However, looking at the comments above, I'm wondering if a slight crop may help.   Posted: 01/28/2018 16:33:58
