This image really draws me in. The bright reflection in the water seems like a sea creature waiting. The reef and sea floor variations add another sense of foreboding to me. The wee swimmer entering the water in the corner of a frame of vast ocean brings it all together. Some might see it as a relaxing dip at the beach. I hope I haven't ruined that nice vision for them. But I had to share what this image says to me. It really is a great image Katherine!

Congratulations Katherine! Timing was everything with this photo imo. The world is big and we are so small. Yet, we are a part of it.

So richly composed and seen - I agree with LaRee on how much the image compels the viewer into the photo with the variations of the patterns of the water with signs of foreboding and awe. This is a terrific capture and congratulations!

I see it pretty much the way LaRee does.....an image of power and foreboding, a powerful statement of scale -just how massive the natural world is and how small (and often brave) we are in it....An excellent and memorable image Katherine. Congrats.

BTW, where were you situated to get such an excellent composition?
