Was this taken very early in the morning or late in the afternoon?
Very appelaing perspective and the subdued light adds a wonderful mood to the overall composition ;)

Hey, Alun - I'm guessing the tide is way out here - thanks for the view. Nice perspective.

I like the image, although with such a wide lens it's not what we see there (in terms of distance of course).

A nice atmosphere there with the contrast between soft colors of sky, water & sand and the black of rocks.
I want to say you also, if you go on my page at the date of july,21 you'll can discover the great surprise i found when i came back from my recent holidays...

either the tide is out or the water level is very low! this brought back a song, can't think of who sang it but it's about "ferry across the Mersey" wow, what a flashback...thanks. very nice composition and lighting by the way :-)
