Not posted here for while so thought I would upload one from a recent trip to Northumberland on the East coast of England.
This was shot from Embleton Beach with Lilburn Tower in the BK, which is part of Dunstanburgh Castle.

Just wonderful ... the light, the capture, PP - the whole execution.

... just visited your website ... lots of great images !!
it's a pity they are in small sizes though.

That's a beauty Alex - super colours and fg detail
The warm light glinting on some of the rocks makes the shot even better.

Very nice, you don't mention exposure times or what filters were used, but the long shutter length adds a nice dreamy effect to this... looks like you got wet

Great shot Alex, a different perspective on a location I have seen so many photos of. If I was to be ultra critical I wouild say the sky is a little too dark compared to the water, although that does add to the mood. I really enjoyed looking at your gallery.

Gorgeous shot, Alex. I like the composition with the portrait orientation emphasising the foreground with that beautiful gold on the rocks; and the castle, slightly menaceing in the background. Very nicely done.

Hello Alex,

A fine image with excellent presence. Love the dark tones in the sky and rocks. Perhaps slightly less light on the hot spots in the water, but only slightly. Good work.

I can see where you're coming from Hugh, but I liked the contrast between the water and rocks.
I'll give it a try though and see how it looks.

Cheers

Hey Alex,

Very cool work here. Wonderfully captured. I know I really enjoyed that part of the UK very much when I was there. Just a fantastic coast.

Hi Alex,

Great comp, looks like you love this location, I remember your last post of this location which was really efffective.

Great moody shot.
I like the way you have a good size of the castle in the image.

Reminds me of David Clapps style of shooting this location.

The only problem I have is the completely blown whites in the water, have you tried getting those hghlights back in your raw file.... watch out for this as it really does detract fromm the image, it would have really been a fab fab image if you had got the water exposed correctly.


Jane
