Absolutely fantastic shot! Love the colours, superb. Great lighting and water movement too. Thought this may have been Aussie before I looked again!

One of those shots that works even though it's got a central horizon.

Like the rushing lines that pull you to the stack.

Congrats! This one has it all Maddie. The low light, good exposure time on the water, a strong focal point, and clouds that seem to radiate right from the top of the rock. This is why you go back to places like this, to catch it at the right time.
