Taken yesterday by Talland Bay in Cornwall.

Although I'm not too sure about the composition, I do like the way this one has come out; this is a 2-shot HDR sequence (my battery dies in the middle of the 3rd shot), using a circular polariser to remove the reflections from the small pool and enhance the colours.

I didn't expect the funky colour in the sky, but I quite like it!

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

A fine technical success. I like the view into the pool. The composition is fine and I even like the strange colored sky! What a perfect time for the battery to go south! :-)

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

I always like to see how the Cornish landscape is so (radio)active . . those rocks look like they are still emerging.
