This is probably one of my favorites of your lovely photos. I am jealous that I have never been to Europe or the UK to photograph. Maria you have such a good eye for what is an attractive scene to photograph. I love nature photography and especially waterfalls and it appears waterfalls are one of your passions also. Keep up the fine work and Maria may I sincerely say that you should be proud of your work .It is very professional looking.The lighting on this and exposure are very well done. The foreground is filled nicely by the edge of the cliffs.Well done!

I'm not sure what I envy most, this amazing image, or the fact that you got to stand right there.

Fabulous photograph Maria. I am really drawn into this scene,I can imagine the freshness of the sea air on my face and the serenity of sitting at this edge of this shoreline, watching the sun setting.

Location
At one of my most beloved Places i've ever been so far. Hope you're not angry with me if don't reveal the exact Position? ;-)Time
It must have been around 8 p.m.Lighting
It was a stunning Light for a very long Time. The Clouds have been amazing and when the Cliffs started to glow ... It was one of the most beautiful Moments of my entire Life.Equipment
Nikon D810 with the Nikkor 14-24 mm, 2.8, a Manfrotto Fibreglas Tripod and a Shutter Release.Inspiration
It was a Gift of Nature. I saw this Point on a Map and thought it could be a great Location for Shooting. Then i hiked 6 Hours through Bog, Midgies, Mug, Heather and Sunlight. On the Verge to Calenture and completely exploited of my 20 Kilo Rucksack i arrived there and first of all i pitched my Tent at the Edge of the Cliffs. I would never do this again but: It was absolutely worth it.Editing
Not much. Only a little D&B, Lense Correction, Saturation. That's all.In my camera bag
It depends on what i want to shoot. But always my two Nikon D810, the Holy Trinity, the Fisheye 10,5, 2.8, a Manfrotto Carbon Fibre Tripod, Shutter Releases, Haida Filters and Stuff for Cleaning.Feedback
I can't give some advice and never assume to give tips because i'm only a Shutterbug. But if i have to: Go out and try everything you can imagine and dream of. Enjoy the Moment of Shooting, be proud of what you've photographed and good Pictures are not a matter of high-quality Equipment.
