Boulders in blue Photo

Photographer’s Note

The North Sea from a small cove near Coldingham, Berwickshire. Not Coldingham Bay, could be a smuggler's cove maybe. A quiet place but easily accessible. After sunset and before the full moon rose at the turn of the tide, incoming, hence wet feet.

90secs, 55mm, iso 100

Hi Doug,

Great composition. Keeping the comp (and the colors) simple really makes it a great shot to look at. I am really keen on the nice dark water near the horizon...it creates a great seperation of sky/water.

haha, i wrote a whole thing about making it a longer exposure, but edited it out when i saw it was a 90 sec exposure...silly me.....haha

Thanks for showing and have a great day.

Beautiful, Dougie!
The composition is simple, but flawless, just awesome color and the water is so calm it looks as if it could be frozen. And this was AFTER sunset????? Man, that's fabulous. Many thanks and warm regards,
Shelly
