Much of shore the (Big Island) of Hawaii is made up of black, volcanic rock. This is one of the tide pools nestled in the rocks. This photo is somewhat dark dark overall, but personally I like the mood it creates.

Incredible range and distribution of colors in the sky and the reflection. The scene seems a bit surreal but beautiful.

A little dark but you managed to maintain great shadow detail so I think it works.

I agree with Jeff. The shadow detail is good. It's a really moody shot. Well done, Ryan.

This picture is very special with the contrast between the dark rock and the strong yellows and reds. The combination of black and red colors is very dramatic. The reflection water is beautiful too and brings out the shape of the rock. The angle and perspective are very well chosen as well. I would be delighted to publish a photo like this in our photocommunity. Have a good time! // Ralf

Nice shot, the red reflexions in the water are very nice. This picture has a silent as well as a dramatic mood.

Reflection and surface are great! I really dig those shots of reflecting sunlight in puddles.

I love the darkness of this image combined with the rich gradations. Has a sense of the mystery to me.
