Beautiful!! Lovely pov, movement and detail! The gulls also are cooperating nicely, drawing the eye. Great composition Eelco!

Excellent Composure. I love the way the rivulet leads your eyes to the beach point and the birds.

Location
I took this photo at Adraga beach near Almoçageme, Portugal.Time
It was at the end of a winters day.Lighting
The sun was hidden behind the rocks at the end of this wonderful winters day.Equipment
I didn't use any equipment other then my wonderful little Lumix DMC-TZ100.Inspiration
Normally this beach does not have a stream running to the sea but due to heavy rain the water coming from the hills was looking for a way out. I wanted to capture the connection of land, water and sea, slicing the beach in two.Editing
I edited this photo in Lightroom. I added a bit more sharpness, contrast and color.In my camera bag
I don't have any equipment in my bag (yet) I am a beginning photographer and I am learning to use a camera, to look for the good light, composition and point of view. One day when I know how to use and set the camera well enough, I will start to think about a bag filled with technical things instead of the need to understand...Feedback
If you look at a subject to photograph, you have to try to realise what you want to achieve, Try to find the good light, the right point of view and the best composition... And most of all, take more shots with slightly different settings so you can choose the best one, once you got home and opened your laptop, the magic of today's world begins... I allways crop it later into the size and composition I like best. Crop the photo in different ways, so you can choose the best one the next day when you can have a fresh look at them!day when you can have a fresh look at them!
