I love that spot and all of MDO. Nice catch with the rainbows in the waves, too bad about the wash being so overexposed. This would have really popped with a polarizer lens and a bump up in the contrast. Good luck...

I like the rainbows in the waves but the horizon is a bit wonky, and you could do with pumping the contrast a bit to bring out the details in the hills.

I enjoy the spray of water, the colours within them but that is pretty much it. It is always difficult to capture something with the thin haze over it which hides detail and confuses depth. Also the blown-out spot of water distracts the eye from any other element.
