The Location

Yet another from my recent trip to Exmoor. Taken at Valley of the Rocks just west of Lynton and Lynmouth, Devon, UK.

The Image

A documentary image and experiment with visual weight. I also just love the endless textures and lines of these coastal rocks in England.

Also used a 3-stop grad filter.

Cheers!

Hi, Rob,
A nice shot evoking legends and lake myths:)
Nice despite its simplicity and the cliche popularity.

Bob,

Lead lines galore here. Wonderful.

Hi Bob,
a nice image, I like the foreground, even if not a good light just on it, because in the shadow.

Hi Bob, Perfect light management in this shot, bright enough to show us the interesting detail on the rock, but not a blown out sky (was this from one exposure?). Inclusion of the coastline works well, taking the viewer out and over the edge (but not to a terrifying death) to the far headland. cheers, Steve

G'day Bob!

So - you've done the English coastline to perfection (again!): when are you going to turn your skills towards Oz and New Zealand, mate?

Best wishes,
Jeff
