This was taken at my usual haunt, but well away from the sandy part.
Down at this end of the "beach" the tide doesn't seem to recede very far and a certain amount of "rock hopping" is required to get to where you want to be.
I have fallen once along this stretch, although I much prefer the phrase "gently and delicately tipped sideways" and as a result have a permanent dent in my lower leg.
I am a confirmed and certifiable nutbar with a penchant for skulls, bones, blood, guts, fire and anything slightly peculiar and mostly bizarre. I also...
@frantackaberry Thank you very much indeed :) @alophoto Thank you kindly...my leg will apparently never fully recover and will always be dented. It gives me lovely contours ;) @juliedduncan Thank you kindly - far too much hopping. It's not until you do that much hopping and stumbling that you realise how much you wobble where you never did before.
@joysabin Thank you very much - it's best without the rabble I find ;) @lsquared Thank you very much :) @rosiekerr It's more of an evil swoop than a hop...and thank you @juliedduncan Don't spend too long thing about me hopping and wobbling... @golftragic Thank you very much - it's a ricky business
Great layers of interest! It is the foreground i find the most interesting. I might be tempted to chop off some of the sky to put more emphasis on the foreground rocks, but that is just me, the person who tries mostly street and architectural stuff so if you disagree I will not be offended!
@mona65 Thank you very much - I survived this trip! @ukandie1 Thank you, input always welcome - I do agree that the foreground is the star of the show but I wanted the larger sky as well as I found the cloud formations quite interesting to. I did another crop of this shot (long and skinny down to the wave on the left hand side of the frame) for a group on Facebook and it worked very well...might even post it here at some point... @jerome Thank you very much - I love it when I'm the only one there @dawnee Thank you very much, always appreciated
I understand that you can be alone on such an adorable place with this mood. One would then be at one with the stones on the beach, the waves subsiding on the shore, the voices of the sea and listen to its breathing. One would then gather his thoughts. How often it is so that we care about something, grieves us...
Sometimes we would then be alone, sometimes we long to have someone with us on such a wonderful place...
Thank you, Graeme, for this shot!
@jerome Thanks very much and you're more than welcome. It is one of my favourite places to go. @dide Thank you very much :) @barb_b Thank you very much :) @hermann Thank you kindly :)
@pasttheirprime Thank you very much :) @theboxmanreturns Thank you very much - I wasn't sure this one was going to work so I'm a little bit chuffed @cottiac I remember the beaches over there...when we first moved there we thought "lets go to the beach for the day"...I'm not sure if you guys know this, but you don't have a lot of sand ;) @psychographer Thank you very much :) @susale Thank you kindly :) @harbie Thank you very much :) @pinkpaintpot It's so much nicer when it's rabble-free, and thank you
First of all; I smiled when I clicked on 'view album' under your name. I was very happy to see that yesterday's image was not the last, as the title implied. Secondly; you did a masterful job of arranging the light here, it is most excellent. Thirdly; do I see a whale tail near the horizon to the right of the leftmost sea stack?
@bill_fe Thank you kind sir - the light was all my doing ;) Unfortunately, no whale tail just a wave very good at imitating things @jocasta Thank you very much, I'm pleased you take pleasure in my dent ;)
Just so beautifully shot - whether the lighting was 'there' for you or not, it's still your shot so... Awesomeness! Despite the permanent dent yikes...
@kerosene That dent still aches...I must be getting old. And thank you very much - always appreciated @susiangelgirl Thank you very much - I can only say that I wish it was!
@graemestevens Totally it - in all the beaches near us I can only think of 1 that has sand and of course it's hardly worth visiting because there are so many others with the same idea. Oh sorry I've just thought of two others. But the bulk are rocky or pebbly.
