About was out on a photo shoot for a shoe company yesterday afternoon when I spotted this scene. Looking west into the mid-afternoon sun, the rough sea was throwing up quite a spray of mist and the light was catching parts of the steeply-rising cliffs to make quite a picture!

Thanks for looking!

Have a great weekend.

Best regards, Chris

Everytime you catch my eyes Chris. Another great pic in your portfolio. Great landscape and light. Well done.


Roger Williams   {K:83282} 10/28/2005
It's a lovely shot, Chris. Beautiful effect with the light behind the spray and the dark backdrop of the cliffs. The little figures in silhouette are great, too. I'm surprised there were so many on what was obviously a cold and windswept day.

Incredible. The bird flying overhead with all that happening below. Wow...right place, right time.

Chris Spracklen   {K:32552} 10/30/2005
Hi Kevin,
I think the reasons I get 30-40 comments an upload are?
i. I'm fortunate to have found some good friends who are very faithful with their commenting.
ii. I try to return every comment with a comment, rather than just 'reply' with a 'thank you'. And?
iii. I probably pick up a few most times on account of my images being fairly bright and appealing to the eye.
As to the 'critique only' option, that's something you can set in your preferences to stop people 'marking' your photo's out of 7 ~ which, in my opinion, is by and large a pretty pointless exercise as many people tend to give only 6's and 7's!!
I hope this helps!
Thanks for your comment!
Kind regards,
Chris
