Another Bird's Eye View

Still at the top of Whitby’s old stone lighthouse, this was taken looking straight down the side of the lighthouse, and quite liked the abstract affect. The railings around the top are spaced apart just enough to poke the camera lens through, but not the whole camera. As the railings are around 6 feet high, it was a case of holding the camera over the top of the railings, pointing it downwards and hoping for the best! I would have liked to have captured someone walking across the open area, but as can be seen in my previous upload, Whitby Panorama, there were very few people on the pier. Just typical, when you don't want people in your shots, they get in the way, when you do, there's none about!

Looks a little better seen large if you have the time.

Thanks again to everyone for your votes & comments on my previous uploads, it really is appreciated and encouraging.
