Trip to Cornwall

Just got home from another great trip to Cornwall. My wife & I were down there for just over a week so had plenty of time to tour round & see plenty of stuff. Unfortunately for the majority of the time the weather was unsettled but I tried to be as creative as possible with the conditions at hand.

1. Old lifeboat station at Newquay. 0.5secs at f/11

You have well & truly succeeded on the creative front with these shots All very eye-catching, detailed and beautifully composed. No 2 for me stands out as extra special - that building on the hillside is almost too perfectly classically placed to be true Colours in 3 and 4 are great IMO. Black and white is not my thing, but I can appreciate the contrast you have drawn out.

In No 3 I wonder if the highlight areas are just a tad too bright, or maybe a bit more depth to the shadows might bolster things a bit.

I can appreciate the creative wispy skys in 4 and 5, but I find myself wishing to see them shot straight, nice and sharp.

Really enjoyed seeing these shots.

Thank you for your kind words very much appreciated!

Will upload some more soon.

All are a pleasure to look at. Thanks for sharing, and including exposure data.
