    ‘Island in the sky’?
    Believe it or not, I actually see a face. Difficult to explain, but it’s there.
    Nice shot, all the same.

    OMG… when I saw the thumbnail of this I thought Stuart Chapman had turned to creative portraiture! Perhaps my bleary morning eyes may have something to do with it, but there is definately a profile shot in that thumbnail!

    Anyway, opening up the shot, this then transforms into a wonderful landscape… fantastic composition and light and I love the colour.

    Wowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowow…

    Amazing work, Stuart. Just amazing. I love everything about it.
    Wonderful exposure of the water, has done wonders to the water itself and the pebbles. Exquisite reflections from the wet parts of the rocks. Amazing colours, and a brilliant composition.
