The Path to the Beach

how cool is this!

well done!

I don’t think I want to go down there

Lovely, derid. Just lovely.

The written piece that goes with this really make it Derid, I’m scaaaawwid!!! Good stuff.

Oh derid… I think this may be my favourite piece of your work to date. I love what you have done with it, and your story to go along with it {{shudders}} perfectly spooky! This could be a scene from a murder mystery movie.

Thanks for all your comments. This comes from a late night walk on the beach. The fog rolled in, and I started hearing things. Now when I look at this path at night, I can’t go any further.

Superb image and wonderful words

Great B&W work, well done

derid this is just so beautiful. so simple and still. lovely work.

Gorgeous mono work Deri, that light is just amazing. Well done

wow! nice bnw shot lighting and framing are great!

The hightlights in this are glorious!

Great light and BW, well done!

Very nice derid! The ropes, the light, all very nice.

oh cool, great shot!

A great capture – i like how the edges of the tree’s silhouettes glow from the light. A great story to accompany a wonderful image. Wasn’t thinking spooky till I read it though!!

Oh this is really cool. I love the lighting.

This is beautiful

electrifying shot. I really like this one. Well done

Great shot derid – and a chilling story…

very moody – great image – great atmosphere

great shot !!!

Glorious shot and story derid – would have loved to sleep tonight, but I guess there’s always tomorrow night…

This work and story makes me think of the debate over which came first, the chicken or the egg. Does the description make the photo more eerie, or does the photo make the imagery of the story more effective? Probably a moot point as both photo and description are great.

Wow, I can almost feel myself walking this path, the light is feels like a calling….

Truly, this is a wonderful image, with words that match to perfection.

A fav…

Wonderful composition, contrast, and use of light. Well done!

Fantastic

love it !

nice and hair raising I agree

Thanks so much for all your comments. Hopefully I haven’t ruined any future walks on the beach at night.

Moon walking on the beach is the best. Nice work

Great work derid and I like the tales of the unexpected !

OOOOO I love your description!!! Goes perfectly with this image! Great job Deri :)

Well done Derid and the storyline makes it more eerie.

nice work here Derid – love the light bouncing off the shrubs – really effective!!

Nice one derid and the lighting superb! I grew up on the Atlantic Coast of South Florida and can tell a few true horror stories…..

Thanks for the remarks guys. I just wanted to leave you in the mood for halloween.

Awesome shot:)
I love our beach at night, though. I always remember it as the meadow…and I just can’t be scared there:)
I havent been down in so long…I miss it a lot.

great shot Derid

I’m not going down that path!!
Great image with strong contrast.

Ok! Who need a ghost in the picture! You’ve got the hairs on the back of my neck riseing.

Beautiful work! lovely processing!

Your words paint a picture Derid. Wish I lived nearer the sea, because such time alone when you cannot sleep is my most creative, and I would love to make the most of the coast.

Great B&W!

Great image.

Scary,but well thought out.

Great image, very atmospheric!.

Fantastic pic,makes me want to go there!

Absolutely stunning, Derid. Love the light just beyond the trees.
