Jagged Edges

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 7 April 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

Another one from Woolacombe, those rocks are as painful as they look.

I'm not happy with the sky in this one; other than that, it's ok.

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

I don't know- I rather like it. I like the way the colors & tones seem to reflect those of the landscape. The rocks are beautiful.

@Tracy: Thanks Tracy, I like the colours but the overlapping clouds put me off!

Zing from Hamilton, New Zealand

Very moody, love the tones, great processing!

A very dramatically processed shot. I think I'd maybe like to see it with a little more contrast for my own personal taste but the shot is basically sound and I like it a lot. Woolacombe's a great place, I normally head down there at least once a year to get a bit of surfing and body boarding in. Croyde Bay has a special place in my heart.

@Mike: Thanks Mike, Woolacombe was cool, a nice mix of things to shoot, lots of fun. Just a shame I didn't get a proper sunset!

fabulous capture - I actually am quite taken in with the sky and the way the sunbeams are peaking through

@Stunner: Thanks Stunner, I came away with scratches along with photos

Don from spokane, United States

I like the overall color cast of the image. The rocks looks very rugged and make a fine foreground for the surf.

Graham Russon from Cape Town, South Africa

I think the sky makes the shot, great processing great colours.

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

Yes, rocks like that are real ankle-twisters . . amazing how the faults in the rock follow the perspective in this one like they are there for photographic use only . . hee hee

@Ronnie 2¢: God was thinking of me when he laid them down, 6000 years ago or so :)
