That is a fine capture. The fog adds some mystic to the scenery. This photo probably would be perfect as a travel advertisement. I appreciate the natural colors and the sharp capture of detail at the rock formation in the foreground. The photo is well framed. The coastal formations at right and the foggy sea at lefty are a nice contradiction.

What a beautiful picture of the Cornish Coastline. I love the detail shown on the rocks and hills in the foreground, then everything fades into the mist in the background. you've captured a very English scene in an area familiar to me.
Thank you for sharing; I miss it sometimes.

Overcast sky, high humidity, rugged rocks skirted by smooth reflective sand and all over seen by the dominate shore line bluff drifting off and diminishing into the distance.

This scene is so reminiscent of the rugged coast of the maritime provinces of Canada - Labrador or New Foundland.

What a great capture of the mood of this shoreline.

The color and tonal range is kind of narrow - not a great deal color diversity, but that is the nature of this day.

The framing is very well considered.

The camera technique shows the atmosphere of the location very well.

This next comment is not a critical critique or complaint of any sort - but I wonder how this would look as a B&W?

Overall a nice take of the English shore line ... B-)) Bob

Comment from El-mundo


A wonderful sea/landscape shot of this beautiful part of our British coast, with fantastic long DOF and sharp clarity, showing the detail wonderfully on the bobbly rocks in the foreground and the smooth sands on the beach in front, with great natural lighting showing the colours accurately and clearly all the way along the beach until it reaches the foggy far shores in the distance. Great POV and positioning, as well as slick composition that shows a lot of detail in what could be potentially a very average photo. Great work :)

You have found a beauty in your older files...well worthy of a reawakening . It is a serene yet dramatic scene...depending on where you look. The cliffs and moss covered boulders are dramatic in darkness and in shape as they reach out onto the peaceful sands and calming water with the white, soft sky illuminating the scene with a filtered light. The colors created by that light speak nature and earth to me. A stunning scene. Thank you for sharing this. You have been good at photography for a few years, eh?

Lovely combination of colors used in this art work indeed i love the perfect scene it shows a mistic background of fog coming in maybe this photo could just stand out more if it had more light but the photo depth and perspective created is looking good. Well done indeed.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


This feels like a retro print and could pass for a painting. I love the predominantly brown coffee tones and the mist in the distance. It looks cold / wet and desolate and I'm glad I'm not there ...brrrrr.

Nikman, I bet you could take this into your software program, turn it to sepia, put an old school filter over it give it some scratches and dust and you will have an historic photograph. Just don't put it up on FART because everyone will tell you it has dust and scratches on it. :o

Your tonal values are very good and the detail is phenomenal, you can see the mollusks on the rocks.

I like the purity of this image.

    I very much appreciate your kind and comprehensive review! Many thanks too for your interesting ideas!! It was in fact quite warm, my wife was swimming in the sea.

Nik,
A beautiful picture of this inviting deserted Cornish beach around the corner from Land's End with golden sand between the rocks at the base of the cliffs that slope down to the beach on the left of the picture under a thin veil of mist under the low clouds rising up over the land from the Atlantic . The pale sky reflected on the sea at low tide. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan
