Stormy Seas #1

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 1 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

This was taken at Portland in Dorset yesterday; nearly froze my fingers off, it wasn't a particularly cold day but the wind was 50mph and the wind-chill felt like about -7!

As always, comments are welcome, particularly those offering feedback and criticism on my images! (It's the only way I'll learn!) :)

Nice...I really like the way you set the horizon. You didn't subtract from the Ocean and the waves from the shore appears to converge...pointing the eyes to the open sea. Very nice composition Dave.

Sure does not look like a good day for the canoe . . although I rather like bleak days on the coast.

Well cold fingers or not, you've got yourself a fantastic seascape, worthy of high quality printing.
