•  Weak oppose I keep coming back to this one to give it another try, but the composition just doesn't work for me, sorry. The main thing for me is the stacks just seem squished at the top of the frame, with the focus on the waves in front of it (which are nice, but not particularly unusual). The positions of the islands in the frame create a helpful slope via their relative size, but apart from the light on the left island, I don't find them particularly appealing. I don't know the spot, but I wonder what a wider composition would look like, and/or one with more sky, and/or a different perspective on the stacks... — Rhododendrites ^talk |  01:03, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

  @Rhododendrites: I do have a wider version, File:Second Beach Olympic June 2018 009.jpg. I was struggling to decide which one to nominate, but I polled a few of my friends and a majority preferred 008. IMO the advantage of 008 is the more prominent foam in the waves, while the advantage of 009 is the two stones in the lower right. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 01:39, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
