Moody Coastal Bays.

I do like to try and produce more than one image from a frame and here are two alternate images from some of the Dorset trip images.

The first image is taken in Lulworth Cove and was taken from a High perspective on the cliffs on the right hand side of the Cove, was a bit of an interesting clamber to get up there as the ground under foot was muddy and not that stable, never the less up I went. I decide to process the image with a dark feel and removed the nice tones of the morning light that was captured in the original image, I think I prefer the image with a darker undertone.

The second image is a black an white conversion of one of the Kimmeridge Bay shots I have posted, I do not think it is the same frame but it was taken from roughly the same location, I feel the Black and White conversion add’s to the drama of the shot and enhances the water in the foreground but that is my own view and others may prefer the muted colour version in the Kimmeridge Bay Post.

Rock Shelf at Kimmeridge Bay

On my coastal outings around Kent and Sussex I have yet to find an area that contains any large rock formation or slabs of rock, I am not saying there are not any but as of yet I have not discovered any, however on the short visit I had to Dorset I was falling over them and my head was swinging from left to right trying to decide which would provide me with some nice lead in lines and subject matter.

Here is a shot from Kimmeridge Bay which will be visited again in the near future when hopefully I will not be drenched from the rain and constantly cleaning my front element of the lens.

At the time I was there the tide was on its way in so I did not want to tempt fate and wander too far around the bay, not being familiar with the high water position and which part of the bay area accessible in between high and low water. For the next visit I will be spending a day at the bay and I will hopefully arrive at high tide which will give me plenty of time to study the shoreline from a high vantage point and ensure I can return safely from any where I decide to venture.
