Went back to this cracking location again yesterday, but wasn't so lucky with the tide. So here's an archive shot that I haven't posted before.
Huge thanks for all the support of late, it is very much appreciated!

Fabulous image Paul - love that water pouring over those rocks
Chris
Look, Paul, if you keep knocking my socks off you are going to have to get me several new pairs, or at least some kind of Immunity from Injury by Images! 
Absolutely fabulous!
It may have even knocked your last image off the top spot on my shorlist!
Cheers
Bill
Superb composition ( no surprise there )
You have captured a dark and moody atmosphere but balanced the exposure well retaining colour and detail.
Nice job Paul.
Derek
Wonderful light and the detail and sharpness in those rocks.
Ken
Wonderful light on those rocks. A truly striking image.
Alun
A once in a lifetime image Paul, highest quality my friend. Hat's off to this one.
Dougie
One of the best images I have seen on Epz for some time, you've outdone yourself with this one Paul

Quote: What a cracker. Definitely something to aspire to for us newbies.
Newbies? lol I think even many of the pros out there would be quaking in their boots if they saw this! An outstanding photograph from a modest chap.
This is possibly my favourite all time landscape pic. The balance of elements, lead in lines, tonal range, movement, drama, atmosphere all come together like symphonic orchestra to deliver a breathtakingly beautiful image. Did I say I liked it?
It's one that I'd like to click on the large to see a superduper large. so I can enjoy the detail in the foreground rocks and trapped reflecting water and then stroll over to the centre point of cascading falls to enjoy the movement and finally take in the golden and dramatic skyline.
It might be an idea to tone down the orange reflection centre. It's an exquisite extra, but does just draw the eye. Don't knock it back too much it needs to be alive, but just slightly less dominance in the balance. One or two notches lower on the orchestra volume.

I'll make sure that I sort this out when/if I print it.
Cheers for the kind words Pete!!!!!

What a stunning portfolio! Congratulations on all the awards that you have. A true inspiration. :0)
Love looking at this, my eyes just follow all those lines in, even the water crashing over the edges of the rock are spot on.
This has it all and I sgree with everything that has been said about it....If you cannot make a few bob selling this to an agency or direct to a photography book ..nobody can its brilliant,
Sorry Paul ,been meaning to catch up but as usual things get in the way .
I think its already been said but this is a piece of art.The way the foreground rocks all seem to face towards the main rock is uncanny .Perfect timing as the wave washes over and then topped by that sky with light pouring through,its the bizz
Had to be, Paul!
Congrats on all the others, especially POTW - I wasn't surprised
Bill
Thanks for the badge Bill - honoured!
Thank you for all the kind words of late Ian
Hi David, it was shot in RAW, so it was necessary to process the image to bring it "back to life" I have posted techniques on the forum in the past. You also may find some ideas on my site.
