The Three Celts
Three Celtic Crosses looking out to sea in Coverack, on the Lizard Peninsula, Cornwall.
I took this a few weeks ago while on holiday, and I am hoping that this will inspire me to get more done.
I chose to do this as selective colouring, keeping the sea as colour.
Hope you like it.
Thanks for looking.

Hi Richard, this is really coold. I like the way you’ve selectively used colour and B&W in this image, the blue sea is fantastic, and the dark granite crosses really jump out at you. Wonderful. Can’t say that I’ve seen these before on the Lizard Peninsula or I’m sure I would’ve captured them too. Great work. Don.
Richard Veal replied
Thank you Don, and for the fave as well.
Much appreciated my friend.
Coverack is always worth a visit. Very small, and always something new to find.
