Very interesting sea/sky transition!!!
Phantasic sense of scale.
Terrific shot overall!!!

At first glance, I thought it was a low angle shot of a water's edge, but soon realized it was a long shot with tiny figures.

Now I love this pleasantly deceptive image.  Lighting is nice, too.

The cliff i was standing on is about 50 meters so the people below are quite small.

Nice one Jack.

Agreed, it took me a few glances to work out the actual scale of what you captured here.

Great shot !

Foreground, lighting, long human shadows give to this image a special atmosphere.

You were at the right place at the right time...

Yes, light and perspective are unusual, making it a very special shot.
