Moeraki Boulders... by julzmaioro

Moeraki Boulders...

Today we visited the infamous 'Moeraki Boulders' on just a very short stretch of beach these boulders are scattered along the foreshore.. some are cracked open and they are made up of 'honeycomb' shapes.. as we have had a day of light drizzle.. it was a bit grey...
Wonderful shot! I like the striped reflection. I would love the chance to see this in person. Amazing!

It does look rather grey. I was surprised when we visited them, they are not how I expected them to be. I guess it depends on the tide too. Sounds like you're having fun!

@kiwichick Yes the tide was up today .. may go back on a lower tide and better light...

Well captured Julia, I think the grey day adds to the atmosphere, it really makes the boulder stand out.

We were lucky to have a lowish tide when we visited. It was overcast but it gave a lovely light.

First glance I thought it was a potato .... guess that what a million dollar potato shot will do to my mind.

Great pattern on the beach water.

I was there a year ago, loved it. The tide was out then, unlike here where you have those wonderful reflections. Fav

This is quite fascinating with unusual horizontal patterned reflections, giving the illusion of a huge spring. Unfortunately the photograph itself is lacking in contrast. If you shoot in RAW you will be able to bump up the contrast to make the picture more punchy. If it was mine I would change it to monochrome and with a RAW file you can use Photoshop (industry standard) or Lightroom to channel swap and make it a super picture! Hope you don't mind the critique?
