Well worth your returning to finish this Willie. A lovely seascape, the tiny figures are a good inclusion and done so well, they instantly show the scale of the bay.

Great perspective there Willie and yes, the figures are a perfect addition. I like the wet sand and the shadow on the beach too.

It's a beauty and clearly perseverance has paid off. Great expansive sands and breaking surf

It’s a lovely composition Willie, and the way you’ve portrayed light especially on the sand is mighty impressive!
