[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
Hello to my all TE friends,
I had show you one posting before the looking down at Anawhata coast from a highground pov and now this is from the beach front that looking inland with a bright sunny day! I put the title "untouched" because among all the coastal area in the westcoast, I think this one is far lesser people to visit due to the hard effort on the steep zig-zag trail the coming down to beach that you see on the mountains on the far horizon! It is pretty much undisturbed and untouched to enjoy the true nature!
Hope you will like it and enjoy it!
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
Take care and best regards
Cheers!!

Hi Tony,

Indeed this landscape seem very pristine and hopefully it will stay that way! Very nice composition showing excellent details and an effective point of view. The rocks on the foreground add an interesting and dramatic effect to this image. Thanks Tony :-)

Hello Tony,
this is a very attractive beach, and I would say that this sight of a beach with soft pristine sand, colorful green hills, kissed by sun is very close to the concept of "paradise on earth" (at least to mine). A beautiful picture. New Zealand is certainly on the top of my list of places to visit.
All the best.
Stella

Bonjour Ho
Une belle composition de ce paysage qui semble loin de tout près et préservé de la pollution. Les couleurs sont nettes, le tout est bien cadré.
Merci pour le partage et bon week-end.

Hello Tony,
Nice beach & coastal scenery at low tide I suppose. Looks like a nice area to walk & explore. A well composed and thought out shot although the shadow area in FG is a bit dark ... a minor point but giving great contrast. Nice DOF & colors. Regards. Latiff.

Nice use of the black stones in the FG.
I like a lot the perfect technical parameters of this one.
Have a nice day,

Hello Tony,
A splendid point of view across this rock strewn beach towards the green hills. The puffy clouds add to the atmosphere. Very good colours and clarity.

Hi Tony,
Untouched and unspoilt nature of your country shown in a beautiful way in your photo. A good POV and composition with an interesting foreground and beautiful green hills in the background. Good natural and warm colours, excellent clarity and sharpness.
Greetings and have a good weekend
Lasse

Hello Tony,

it's a fortune that you have those beaches still untouched!
Lovely composition with the rocks on the foreground which contrast wonderfully with the sand and the green of the hills.
I like those intense dark colours.
Well done,
Donato

Tony,
What a great beach you have shown us! Your composition and POV are fine showing the beach through the framing of the foreground rocks. The lighting and colors are fine with excellent sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

Hi Tony,
It's a good title, because that stunning piece of coast really looks untouched by humans. As usual, you did an impeccable light management, resulting in great clarity and colours, and a very neat compo, drawing a diagonal with the FG rocks that are nicely balanced with the verdant hills and the clouds on the BG.

Very attractive composition Tony. The sand looks particularly smooth. Well exposed, sharp, and the textured rocks on the f/g anchors the scene quite well. Best regards, Danilo

Hi Tony,
lovely, intimate view of this wonderfully pristine location. It's hard to find anything like this on most of our European coasts, therefore I specially appreciate your effort.
Excellent lighting and natural colors, great atmosphere. Thanks for sharing!
Have a nice weekend, see you soon.
HUGS,

Hello Tony. Your images are always a pleasure to look at. This one is of no exception. I like the angle chosen and the depth of the execution. Stunning details in good perspective. TFS and warmest regards. Jusni

Hi Tony,
It's hard to say "one of Your best shots", because You have so many fantastic ones about the NZ coast here and on TN, but this one surely belongs to the top category. Excellent exposure, colors, sharpness, compo, focus, POV - and yes, I enjoy untouched nature very much. :) Awesome atmosphere, I only miss a naked girl from left. :) Absolutely brilliant and breathtaking image. Bravo.

nice title and an impressive landscape! Maybe with a super wide lens you would have captured an even more beautiful view on this wonderful place. But nevertheless it is great work!

Hi Tony,
Perfect sample of an almost virgin and very natural landscape, in a photo with an excellent light and a beautiful colors, besides a high quality of image.
The difficulty to accede to this place that you explain very well in your note, has allowed that the actions of the man should not have spoilt it.
A great work, my friend.

Hi Tony,
Love this inland view of this unspoiled beach with the pastel sky seen reflecting in the wet sand.
Love the foreground group of volcanic rocks and the lush green distant hills that contrast brilliantly with the blue sky and encircle this lovely lost beach.
Regards, Tom

As always my friend, spectacular scenery, serene in solitude, full of light and beautiful colors.

I am very pleased the effect of moisture left by the waves on the sand. Excellent point of view.

Hello Tony!
(You know, they call me Tony too;-))
I like your untuched (Greeks would say "partheno", which also means "virgin") place. The contrast between the good-weather clouds in the blue sky and dark shadows of the river that crowls in the sea is spectacular.

Anton

Hello Tony,
I like your green mounts, the huge plain without any footprint, the rocks in the foreground - but the element I like most is the water surface with reflection of the rock. An excellent photo as usual in your collection.

Hello Tony
With envy, I admire this picture.
The N.Z. with its vertical length is the earth with all its power in all seasons.
Your gallery is exceptional.
Greetings
Baddori

a very interesting place with an amusing background. I like your point of view, but I think the place begs for more to show, so a wider angle view would be even better.
