ah yes.... really great. Looking through, twice! A tighter crop, perhaps, but really great.

What a place! I'd be going back here with a tripod early in the morning or late evening.

wonderful textures and composition.

This was as close as I could get without risking a drenching. The sea was rushing through this fissure at quite a pace. You can tell how deep it was by the darkness of the water.

I chose this crop because it shows the texture of the granite on either side of the fissure. I think the two angled surfaces in the foreground help guide the eye into the picture.

I suppose what I'm saying is that I chose both the shooting position and the crop very carefully.

Beautiful location - where is this? (great for the theme too)

Roger said 539 days ago:

It's a cove near in the far west of Cornwall called Nanjizal. Here's another shot I took there: www.flickr.com/photos/roger/146909095/

The shooting position is perfect!

Montage said 539 days ago:

I love this shot. The colours and details in the rocks and water are fantastic.

Wow this is a really awesome landscape image. Straight 5's across the board. I love how I can see through this tunnel of rocks and water to sea beyond. On an abstract level this could be taken as two legs too... (I know I'm warped).

Montage said 538 days ago:

I keep coming back to this. Can't believe this hasn't been featured yet.

EXP said 535 days ago:

I like this shot. Very "deserted island" exploring. it's almost inviting you into reach the other side. Is that a patch of land inside?

Roger said 535 days ago:

No, it's just a jumble of rocks that the sea was breaking over.
