As the tide turns

As the tide turns

Another of my back catalogue images – this time, a coastal scene taken from Countesbury Hill looking west over Lynmouth Bay, North Devon. When I visited the location in 2005, it was VERY wet on Exmoor, and the light was terrible – apart from a couple of streams, I had nothing noteworthy photographed, so headed for the coast instead, and had to position myself quite carefully to miss the road in the picture, but still stay on top of the cliffs. This image was taken in very low light conditions, and had terrible noise (no RAW to play with back then) on a Canon G2, so has had to be played with quite heavily, and in doing so, I feel I have lost a lot of the detail. However, the mood is still there, so I offer it for critique here on RB. I quite like its darkness.

    Love the effect you’ve created here with the powerful greens and reds and that moody dark ocean and sky.

    It’s incredibly atmospheric; It feels like something terrible is about to happen.

    Whatever you have done, it now looks more like a painting, It feels as if a storm has just passed, and the sun trying to break through the odd gap in the clouds…. quite emotive.
