Great snap, but I would advise you to make the rocks less soft and the sand a little less smooth. When looking at the rough rocks, the extremely smooth sand throws me off. I want to see sand grains.

Scrolling thru the contest feed - this photo grabs me & won't let go. The powerful, heavy rocks suggest movement. The light is powerful. The water and sand hold each other in harmony. Very moving photo

Behind The Lens

Location
This photo was taken in Adraga beach, Sintra - Portugal
Time
Sunset time around 18:30 pm
Lighting
It was a great colorful sunset
Equipment
I used a canon 700d with the ef-s 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 is stm kit lens on a tripod.
Inspiration
Adraga beach is a beautiful and inspirational location with some fantastic rock formations.
Editing
Post processed with Lightroom and Photoshop
In my camera bag
Canon 700d, canon ef-s 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 is stm, canon ef-s 55-250mm f/4-5.6 is stm, canon ef 50mm f/1.8 stm and a manfrotto mt190x3 tripod with a manfrotto 496rc2 ball head.
Feedback
Look for different compositions, keep your lens clean. Usually i take more than one exposure when shooting in to the sun like in this photo and blend them in photoshop finally just enjoy the moment since the beginning of the process until the end.
