Congrats on the HM! My comment for the Art Jury: 
A beautiful shoreline with lots to take in. So many different layers working very symphonically together. Beautiful b/w toning and a balanced composition blend it all together. This images speaks to me any many different levels. Bringing back many memories. Evoking feelings I'd wish to feel again. I find the sea so inspiring. Anytime I feel a void or a need to recharge I head to the shore. So I do have a strong and hopefully good bias in that I hope to share some in depth thoughts. It appears as though as a storm is leaving, with the contrasting light as the sun is out, as the looming storm clouds are scattering and the current creates some sea spray. I can imagine the rush of salty sea air. Quite refreshing. The lone little bird (sandpiper?) balances out the shot and adds to the scale. I think it would've also been a good capture without it but it'd feel too desolate without a living creature and perhaps evoke another feel, perhaps a more negative one. I hope you've enjoyed the process of taking the photo. Thanks for sharing! I hope it does well in the challenge.

| Excellent tones and content; however, the sharpening halos on the oyster-catcher break the immersion for me somewhat, as that's the focus of the image. I also find the power lines leading out of the right edge of the image a little distracting - I'd have cloned those out, but that's very minor. One of my favourites from this challenge. |

| I would love to have seen this in color. The B&W leaves me wanting more. |

Landscape as "art" is a fine line to draw. Without the bird it's just a nice photo. But you have the bird, which is all the difference. Top 5 for me, maybe better than that.
(update)
It was better than that. Top 2 |

| You could not have asked for more terrific elements to pop up in this shot- the bird, the waves the dunes the rock the sand and surf- and the magnificent cloud fit for an aged but toned white bearded deity to spout out of- |

| Powerful sense of motion, and determined march towards the right, by all involved. |

| Such wonderful tones and layers to this and all so perfectly balanced, right down to the bird, who's tiny character dominates this lovely landscape! |
