Hi Phuoc
This is beautiful thanks to the late sun warming up the water and rocks. Your low-down pov adds dynamics. It's just a pity that the part on the left is so overexposed as it distracts rather.
Regards
Nikki

Hi Phuoc,
What a dramatic scene!!Beautiful side- on POV and lovely warm tone of colours.Like the how the light has changed as we move from dark to brighter sides.The textures of sea water and contrasting boulders has added dynamism here.Very nicely done.

Hi phuoc,

fine compo and tonality. I like the movement of water in immediate foreground.

Sweet! One of my favorite places and so exquisitely done with lots of drama in the clouds and timed exposure for the surf. Very nice!

everything here is nice...the warm colors, the softened action of the waves and even the shoreline is a good diagonal itself...cheers

Hello Phuoc,
Excellent perspective with the angle you chose to highlight the beautiful colors and shapes in the scene!
Maybe a bit longer shutter would have helped soften the movement of the water, but a beautiful photo as it is...

Hi Phuoc,
Once again you work your magic with light. The sharp detail of the palms leaning to the sea and FG rocks contrast well with the glowing clouds and softly blured wave as it crashes against the rock.

Hi Phuoc Phan,
I like Your picture. Especialy POV and sunset's light. The time of exposure is short, but it givs dynamic effect of this picture.
