Shot in Priests Cove (I think) at Cape Cornwall.
I am finding some really interesting images shooting into the sun, having been told for years that this was a no no, although I think I should have cloned out the flare bottom left (just noticed - darn it).
The rocks and pebbles were protected under a scientific interest law and I have to say they were beautiful.
ISO200 / F8 / 1/350 Shutter speed
Touched up slightly in Aperture 3

Good capture, but have to warn folk not to look through the lens at the sun because of damage to the eyes.

Thanks guys,
Good point Trev, I usually look at a feature of the Landscape and use my peripheral vision to check the position ofthe sun. Or use a Tripod and Live view if your camera has it.
Accipiter - good call, I will try that.
Lou - definately worth it, also switching to manual means a lot more control and the ability to get the sun star shaped occasionally.
Thanks
I know the location well...those are The Brisons on the horizon, which in this part of the world is.....horizontal! (unlike your shot!)
Otherwise, you might try underexposing a little to bring some colour back into the rocks, but digital doesn't cope well with this type of shot. Good try though, it looks peaceful.
