Candles?

Who needs a candle when you can capture this sort of light. This was at Durdle Door in Dorset U.K. at sunrise today. Apparently it can only be captured during a few week of December and January when the sunrise aligns with the door.
Fortunately sunrise was at a civilised time. It is a bit of a hike to get down to the beach and many photographers were there. I need to polish up my skills at this type of shot but far from disappointed.
I know it’s not a candle but the shapes reminds me of a flickering flame.

Fabulous capture! Went there a couple of years ago, it’s amazing. It was a geography topic many years ago at school when learning about arches & stacks! Happy Birthday too!

Magical shot and a much better time for sunrise. Our sunrises at the moment are at 5.30 am. Too early for me, ha ha.

[Ricksnap]

That’s a great, magical shot. Planning to shoot there next year.

Spectacular shot. I'd make the trek for a chance to capture a watery candle flame too. Well done.

@ricksnap worth a visit to view the sunrise. There were quite a few enthusiast there with tripods. Some got rather wet as the waves were breaking quite high on the shore even on a low tide.

The classic shot, well done.

[Phil Sandford]

Simply stunning.

[Lis Lapthorn]

[Wendy]
