18_April_Findochty Lumps

Moray

Fascinated by these rock formations, pummelled by the years of tidal action
I opted for an extended exposure to compensate for the rather limp sunset
and to create a rather surreal scene which seemed to fit with their abstract shapes.

Wonderful long exposure which has a cracking sky ... after seeing your alternative comp I am drawn to it!

This works really well with the subtle lighting and smooth rocks. V

Brilliantly done - there's heaps of sc-fi about this, from the fiery colours across the sky and the contrast with the muted greens and browns of the foreground, to the undulating landscape across the rocks...great work Stewart!

That geology 'thing' is getting it hooks into you! Great dreamy feel to it.

There is a stillness and a beauty to this scene. I am surprised its evening as it looks cool
like the start of day.
It does look remote and beautiful.
