Priest's Cove
Ref: S4-9045
This is Priest's Cove with Cape Cornwall towering above, and the Brisons just offshore to the left. Always liked the 'chessboard' appearance of this beach with the mixture of light and dark rocks, and found this nice spot as the waters edge with seaweed and barnacles on show.
As I arrived, the clouds where clearing off eastwards, and I honestly thought I had gone to the wrong location. However the clouds seemed to do an about turn, and came back in just as the sun was setting and really completed the shot. The waves were small and only just lapping at the rocks. I tried some shorter exposures, but I didn't quite get the right feel, so I fitted the 6 stop ND to go much longer (this exposure was 25 seconds). This really smoothed out the sea, and I felt this complemented the mood of the scene much better.
