First of all, congratulations on winning this one! Second stunning work! I love how you were able to mimic the waves as well as the edge lighting. great job you def deserved it, plastic is a big problem, and I genuinely believe that this image should in an awareness campaign ad! Bravo ! and Good luck!

Congratulations, I love everything about the image, from photography to colour (the purple-ish red suits the lighthouse and the sand tones on the ground serve as a perfect background tone, great use of isolation, lighting as well as amazing framing.

Congratulations on being one of the top images in this competition! This is one of my Favourite images in this competition! great work, i love the frame within a frame as well as the colour, lighting, & composition , my friend this is fine art. again congrats !

Nothing says 'holiday' like a beach, but for the lucky ones who get to live by the sea all year long, they get to witness it in all seasons and weathers. Snowy, misty, raining... it doesn't have to be sunny to be fun – or photogenic – down on the coast... Images must have a beach as the main focus of the shot.

Congratulations on reaching the top 10 , beautiful portraiture, angle , use of light, and positioning ! i love how the light hits the model's face in very flattery manner, her wardrobe complimenting the frame, as well as the pose, congratulations my friend you deserve it !

Congratulation my friend on the great work ! i love how your image has some very unique vision and characteristics , generally when i see a silhouette shot of the sunset , everything is in the shadows but you managed to include the sun ray to hit the sands and show texture in it, great work!

beautiful work my friend, great use of a drone, i love the balance of colour , from the blues of the sea to the sand monochromatic colour, and how the boats are aligned to like a tetris board, my only critique is that the lines of the street are not aligned with the beach. great job ! well done !
