The Moeraki Boulders on New Zealand's East Coast are incredible remnants from ancient times and are a magnet for landscape photographers. It can get very busy there but on that particular morning my mates and I had the place to ourselves - bliss!

I was in NZ over 20 years ago - this image brought me back to the rhythmically waves and glowing sunrise instantly. Thank you!!

Wow! This image is something special. It's interesting how the subject matter and the overall technique of the image is easy to be done but the image as a whole is much more powerful and complex. Well done!

This is almost certainly the best Moeraki Boulders image I've seen - absolute perfection 8-)

Congratulations on your win from one of the other finalists. I was at Moeraki but during a cloudy day. I live the way you captured the clouds and the colors.

The bolder has endured the passage of of relentless efforts of the waves to devour it. You captured its resolve to remain, and strike a stoic pose for yet another moment.
