West Bay, Dorset

by stevesphotos

It was wet, it was windy, we (the camera and I) got soaked, it didn't care, i didn't care much...
Before getting to West Bay, I had a look at images on Google, and pretty much every one, was pointing the other way (round the corner a bit) at the really big cliff. I decided to ignore that shot. Turned out alright. I've already sold a print of it too...

Very Nice!!
Lovely light, well captured.

It often pays to ignore the 'classic' view and get somthing unique.

I know this stretch of coast so well but I've never seen it like this, being a fair-weather person. An outstanding shot which is very special.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Very nice scene and light. It looks tilted left to right by a degree or so?

Engaging moody crepuscular lighting that accentuates the form of this rugged coastline. Bravo!
