Description Coastline enveloped by sea spray during the golden hour, after an afternoon shower.

Golden hour (sometimes known as magic hour) is the first and last hour of sunlight during the day. Typically the lighting is more diffused because the sun is near the horizon, so the sunlight travels through more of the atmosphere, reducing its intensity.

I've been watching your work for quite some time now and it is my belief that you live in some fantastical world where everything is amazing and beautiful. Possibly Fantasia?

Great flow of water and colour on the rocks, unusual composition but I like it.

Need the right motion and amount of water to achieve the right effect for the scene. Steady tripod and long exposure basically, anything longer than second will be enough for a silky effect on water, although this was taken with a slightly quicker shutter. Can't remember what exactly
