Coast at Lynton

Along the rugged North Devon coast at Lynton.
Doesn't really do it justice as the dynamic range was impossible.
Imagine a band of sparkling silver set in an azure sea fringing those cliffs
and the sillhouetes not nearly so dark keeping the greens alive.
Being a north-facing coast this kind of spectacle doesn't happen
after September as the sun gets lower in the sky.
