There's something about the spheres on the beach that makes this picture worth looking at.

I looked at this picture and was completely speechless. This picture is priceless. Words cannot describe it. The black and white looks so rich on it. It's EXTREMELY unique looking; definitely one of a kind. I like how you chose to make it in black and white because it fits it best. It makes it look very exclusive. Not only that, but I believe black and white photography definitely look better over color in many ways. If this picture is not a winner, then I don't know what is.

After looking at the image for longer, I want to make one more comment. The most interesting thing about the "tones" you speak of, to me, is the way the spherical boulders have such smooth tone gradient while the jagged rocks change from light face to dark face pretty drastically. Adjacent sides of a jagged rock can have sharply conflicting levels of tone. That is what gives the boulders their "alien" feel, other than their geometric peculiarity. Spheres don't come alone every day in the wild, don'tcha know! For that reason, I enjoy your photo.

In my opinion, Chris, and I'm not a photographer or artist, the best part about your landscapes is the beautiful blend of colour you bring out. It's that blend which makes most of us recognise your work from the thumbnail. I'm not saying this is a bad image, mind. It's sharp & focused, and has a hint of the surreal. That said, IDK if I'll put it as my wallpaper or not...it might grow on me.

Oops, the above comment was from me - posted from a computer at work where my colleague was still logged in!

@Burn/Batman_360, I agree the composition is pretty ordinary. One of the other reasons I originally binned this shot was the messy and unstructured foreground, but I felt the tones and contrast in B&W rescued it a bit. It's difficult getting a good composition at this beach - the boulders and rocks are just scattered everywhere and it's hard to get a clean shot (unless you focus on just one or two boulders, like in Kah Kit Yoong's shots).

I agree with Burn Baby Burn completely, and I think that comments like his/hers are valuable because I know Chris Gin can do better. He's so talented that he can take our constructive feedback and use it, whereas amateurs often post to IFL just for the ego-boost that comes from unanimous compliments. The image is crisp, but detail happens almost accidentally and without structured use... Ansel Adams may have been a BW photographer, but he did not overlook the value of detail, which I feel Chris Gin has in this photograph. All this aside, I am still using it as my wallpaper at the moment.

@Burn. As I'm writing this your comment is rated "unhelpful". While I disagree with your comment it certainly wasn't written in an unnecessary way. I think it's going to take many of us a little while to remember not to click anything at all if we disagree. I keep forgetting myself. Oh well. It'll work itself out in time.

Also, to Burn Baby Burn, we're each entitled to our own opinions, of course, but I fear you are missing out on some of the best landscape photography ever captured (uh...Ansel Adams?) if you ignore black and white. Just my 2 cents.

Holy hell. I've been a fan of your stuff for a while now, but this is just too compelling not to comment. Thanks for the new wallpaper.
