Hi everyone.

Blimey, what a busy summer so far! Due to the response of my website and my new managerial position at work I've hardly had time to venture out with the camera and to post comments on the numerous photos I've missedSad

So when I had a moment to myself I brushed off the cobwebs from my camera and popped down to Portland Bill for an evenings shoot.

10mm @ f16 (Cokin X121S Grad)

Hope you all like.

A lovely light, good lead in lines along the rocks and a good dof.

The lighting is absolute perfection!
I love the contrast of the deep moody sky and the vivid bright and highly textured foreground.
This is one well worth hanging in a gallary!

Superb seascape, fantastic colour, great comp too.

Fab location, This great shot brings back fond memories of the place! Composition works well, I feel that the tension between lighthouse and pylon makes this image great. Well done!!

OH MY GOD.

Pete, you know how to make some one happy when they've come home from work after having a bad day.

Thank you and everyone else who's commented - much appreciated as always

@Cathy. No, but had to hang on for dear life due to the 3 foot drop into the cold sea behind me.

This seems to be a very rewarding place lol. think I even prefer this one over your latest awarded version (allthough both are stunners), probably because the portrait version really invites the eye to stroll through this from fg to bg
