p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Sea Chamber



I haven't posted here in a while so I decided to bring to FM Forum one of my photos I took this year.
Even though I shot it this year, I have been working on it for quite some time....whenever conditions allowed it.
The location of this sea cave is close to the place where I live (Vancouver, Canada) so distance was never a problem. What brings problems in capturing this scene is that it is very hard to coordinate natural factors like the height of the sea tide and decent light. Weather and tides in Vancouver can be tricky. And you can get pretty wet while shooting this composition if you come in the wrong time of the year.
While capturing this view I used a short moment of opening in the sky when the stormy light created this mysterious mood. My plan for this photo was a bit different and I thought I would capture different light conditions. Instead nature brought me this moody, a bit "Lord of the Rings" or "Game of Thrones"-like set up.
I'll be definitely visiting this spot in the future as it has enormous potential. And I still have in mind the scenery I imagined and one day I will be able to capture it (assuming that one day nature will decide to cooperate with my imagination).

Comments as usually are appreciated.

Artur;

What a fantastic image - really appreciate the forethought, dedication and vision to execute this. Time well spent - and it shows. Really enjoy the moodiness and the speed of the water seems just right. Always enjoy your work (and the stories aren't too bad either!)

Wonderful photo, technically superb. It creates a very uncomfortable to frightning feeling of "there is no escape".

I agree!
I've never seen a poor image from Artur. And his travels make them doubly exciting.

I agree Craig.

I think it's because Artur isn't forcing anything. He is gifted as an artists, has worked on his skills as a photographer, and he just posts his best work.

Good work Artur, I can totally imagine the difficulty raised in this location. Good work, and I look forward to the day you can show off your continued vision for this location.

Really cool view. Did you have to get there on a boat? I'm curious as to how you ended up finding it. Technically it looks great, just the right shutter speed and blended subtly enough that it doesn't look overcooked at all

Many thanks for all comments and appreciation. I try to constantly improve and come up with new photo ideas. Lifelong journey of mine. I don't post all of my photos here as it would be too much. I randomly choose some and post from time to time.I tend to spend a lot of my time outdoors and have limited time for online presence. Although, recently I tend to be more present thanks to photo posting help I get from my family.

Langran: No boat involved. I found it by accident in one of local sea front parks. It is really, really close to the place that I live ( in comparison to my other trips like Baffin Island or Patagonia
As usually, I found it by accident while scrambling down the cliff. It is relatively steep to reach it as you need to "slide" down the sea cliff. Wet clothes come in the package. The wetness depends on the height of the tide. The willingness to shoot in this cave made me a specialist in Vancouver tidal predictions
I took there one of the local photo enthusiasts that follows me on Facebook. He managed to shoot from the inside of the cave. Unfortunately weather conditions that day were poor.

Sounds a bit dangerous place due to the tidal water and such. But, the outcome is worth it. Been looking for such places here in Finland as well but they are all missing the "roof" so far. And walls are nearly not that high.

Earth may have looked something like this way before humans.

Love the mood in the sky, the darkness of the walls and the details in the waterflow. works well. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the info. You're thousands of miles away so it's unlikely I'll be able to visit or even find the place but it's nice to hear you just happily stumbled onto it by being a bit adventurous

Fantastic image Artur: the framing, the water texture, the light. Don't think I would change a thing and would look forward to seeing your future images from here.
