Hi,
I'd like to share this recent image from a trip to Whitby on the North Yorkshire Coast...
It was an image that I had in mind for several weeks before we even left for the holiday. I knew the caravan site we were staying at was just 100yds from the Cleveland Way, which runs along this section of coast, and wanted to get an image that captured some of the essence of the place. A look at a map beforehand indicated that I should get a decent view of the cliffs from this spot.
However, the cliffs here do unfortunately face east, which meant a 5:30am start to capture the early morning light - although the composition was actually recce'd the evening before. Having the signpost was an added bonus that I hadn't anticipated, but in my mind it helps to anchor the image, both compositionally and geographically.
From a technical point of view the image was taken on a tripod mounted 20D, 10-22mm with a 2-stop GND to balance the sky.
Some more image from the trip can be found in the gallery on my website.
Comments welcome,
