Man O' War Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Man O' War Bay is a cove on the Dorset coast in southern England, between the headlands of Durdle Door to the west and Man O' War Head to the east.

I captured this just before sunrise and chose a higher POV to separate the rocks.

Stephen

I was interested to see this as I was on holiday in Dorset earlier in the year and visited this spot.

I admire the sharpness and clarity of your shot. I like the composition with the line of rocks leading the eye towards the distant cliffs, and the horizon is perfectly positioned on the top third of the frame.

The soft colours of the early light are magnificent creating a dreamlike impression.

Regards
Finlay

Hi Stephen,
a pretty nice blue hour shot. I love this pastel colours, soft and warm. I think the chosen POV gives a hint of 3D feeling. Very good work, TFS
Have a nice evening

Very quiet and beautiful scene, the composition's great, and the blurr of the sea is a good technical work

Hi Stephen,
Awesome shot, love the colours, both in the sky and on the sea. Maybe you should crop the foreground (bottow third) to give it more impact.
Best,
Jeremy
