This picture was taken near a small fishing village called Coverack,Cornwall....Battered incessantly by the sea is this precipitous cove cut deeply and jaggedly into the dark serpentine rock.....Please enjoy.

Wow, Mick, this is wonderfully dramatic shot. I love those Payne's Gray thunderhead clouds and the bright patch of Burnt Sienna on the far cliff. Powerful image, like something from a doomsday movie.

I really like it Mick. I always look forward to your posts because I know they will be just like this. Perfect lighting and composition. Great contrast in this one. Like the looks of the waves lopping up against the rocks. I know that sounds redneckish but I can't help it. lol. Great photo Mick. I'm still waiting for photo of golf course.

This is a great study in texture and detail Mick. The water, the rocks, and the clouds depicted here give us great opportunity. ;) Your colors are very vibrant and give the image life. The depth is good too as I feel as though I am standing on the precipice of the rock watching the thunderheads rolling into the shore. The viewer is drawn into this image by your spot on composition.
Many thanks for sharing this with me. To my favorites it goes. ;=)

Hey Mick! Another outstanding view in this one...I really like how the clouds are almost a mirror image of the shape of the cliffs on the left and with the rocks in the foreground, there is incredible depth to the shot...thanks for sharing!!

What a desktop this makes Mick. The clouds - the water - and especially your capture of the perfect light bringing out the colors on the far side cliff. I might have been tempted to remove the gull droppings from the boulder, but that's a very minor personal preference. It's a grand capture my friend with professional perspective. Top notch photography.

Hello Mick....

I must say at first glance...this is my favorite of all your images...and will enter my 'house of favorites' with pride...seriously...this photo speaks to professionalism...perfection...quality in artistry...to mention only a few of it's attributes...

I learned a little about Serpentine rock today before writing my comment... and learned that this type of rock is sometimes 'apple green' to 'black'... which I see here Mick...mottled with light and dark areas....of which I am sure you would know so much....more about than me...

But I found this interesting...Your photo here...aside from all of it's merits...makes me think of things like 'The Normandy Invasion'...but without a beach.....my oh my...I do love this image....

The colors and your enhancement of them... are simply superior to those of many....you bring even black rock to life...what a scenic view of an outstanding coastline....

Along with your many outstanding skills as a photographer...I just shutter to think of myself ever attaining such status....Lol! :o)

Mick you are remarkable in what you do....just look at the unusual high C-index....I know that we should pay little or no attention to this....but one...nevertheless....can't help but notice...with a photo like this...

Ta, for now...To use your Britiscism....

This is a gorgeous image Mick - how much searching did it take before you found such a brilliant arrangement of triangles, and all pointing in the right direction! I was at Coverack a couple of years ago for a friend's 40th birthday, it's a beautiful part of the world and you really did it justice with this one.
