just the right place at just the right time

It's a neat shot but I'm not sure it qualifies as serendipity. From what I can see, it is a shot of waves breaking across rocks. Since this a regular occurance which can be counted on to happen at a certain time (in the case of breaking waves, it can be counted on to happen every couple of minutes) this kind of shot is easily planned for and doesn't really make for a serendipitous moment. In other words, it isn't too much of a stretch to imagine the photographer being there at just the right moment and just the right time. If this shot was missed another opportunity would have presented itself in seconds.

Greetings from the Critique Club:

Impressions: I like the concept, and the shot of the tires with great DOF works well. I particularly like that we get a closeup of a tire in the foreground which looks like it has pretty uneven tire wear.

Improvements: Looks like your camera failed you a bit, as there appears to be purple fringing around the trees. The sky itself seems a bit odd in color as well. Compositionally, it might have been better to use a vertical division into thirds, e.g., two thirds tires, one third sky (or vice versa, but since the tires are the subject, I think two-thirds tires.
