p.1 #1 · Wading your way to a photo: The Arch at Campiecho, Asturias
Congratulations to vieri for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 7 votes - View Previous Winners
It takes wading in the ocean, water chest high, to get to the Arch at Playa de Campiecho with high enough tide for the cave to be filled with water, and then some more wading into the cave to get the photograph: but the feeling and the view from in there are simply amazing! Taken at sunset during the Workshop I led in Asturias last year with Leica SL, Voigtlander 15mm and Formatt-Hitech Firecrest filters.

Well worth the risk. Be safe! Quite an amazing image.
Thank you Harold! Yes, safety first is always my motto both for my personal work and, especially, for my Workshops - this was a nice stroll in the Ocean, nothing dangerous. It's very important to always assess the ocean's tide conditions and forecast before starting the wading. I always make sure to go there with receding tide, so that first and most important there is no risk of being trapped, and second on the way back when it's dark it's just a walk on solid ground

Awesome again and would normally be a for sure win on this board. However, it seems nobody is even voting anymore...
Thank you very much indeed, I am glad you enjoyed it! About the most voted, I never worried too much about all that - for me, what counts is that people see my work, is the sharing that is important
