Took it this morning at Hell's Mouth on the LLyn peninsula. This was my first shot of the morning, I moved that big red buoy after this, but I prefer the splash of colour in this one. The ruin on the right used to be a tavern at one time, but was abandoned in 1917, after a wave crashed in through the front door and wrecked the premises.
F20, 25 sec, Lens @ 12mm, ISO 200, ND grad filter, 6:10am.
Please view..LARGE...if you can.
Hope you like it, and many thanks for your comments on my last upload.
Hope you have a great weekend, Regards Tony

Gives a whole new meaning to watering down the beer
Lovely shot
Dave
They needed flippers with the beer then Tony?
It all looks so 'abandoned',even the lobster pots are just slung there.Love the composition & subject,colours are wonderful & the time of day this was taken has brought out all the blues so well,excellent sky.
Janet
That's a stunning scene Tony, you always get such smooth colour tone, its very similar to scenes I see here, beautiful image, Adrian
The red bouy creates a focal point in just the right place Tony, as it draws the eye into the shot. Very skillful camera work.
John
Lovely capture Tony, deserves more attention than this. I have a similar composition to this one, but the sky and light were nowhere near as good.
Phil.
Many thanks for your comments, very much appreciated.
Apparently, in that storm a baby in a crib was washed around the room, and some money on a table was washed away. The family built another house further up the hill, and they lived there from then on.
Thanks for that Phil, next time you come up, let's hope for some better light!
Regards to you all, Tony
A really great image.
The lighting is wonderful.
I agree about the splash of colour, it draws your eyes further into the shot.
Hilary
An excellent image. I can see what you mean when you remove the buoy. Seems a lonely place to have a tavern.
Great shot there Tony. Nice pre dawn light. Great to get that amount of detail in the shadow areas and fantastic composition. Thanks for all your comments on my recent uploads...cheers, Rob.
Fantastic composition.
Thank you for your comments.
Christine
fantastic color and comp. like all your work..very dramatic colors.......
alex
An outstanding image Tony, wonderful colours and composition
The buoy is perfect and I might have even moved it in closer. It goes with the rest of the scene perfectly. But if I was there I also would have done some shots with no buoy just to make sure in case the buoy ones don't work.
