Mizen Head

    Hi all
    I took this photo when I was visiting Mizen Head. I found this location not to far from Barley Cove on the northern part of Peninsula and taking this shot was very challenging in such conditions (strong wind). Fortunately one shot was sharp enough to use. Forgot to mention that it was taken in a midday using ND8 filter and Graduated ND filter. C&C very welcome.
    Thanks

    lovely shutter speed in the water. great colours ….. great shot !! the only thing i might say is i would like to see it with maybe a 1/4 of sky cropped . doing so might not work …but i have a feeling it would just make a slight difference

    Lovely shot indeed, well done.
    Agree with above, slight crop of sky needed.
    I would have liked to have taken this shot.
    Good work.

    Hi Martin,

    This is indeed a lovely photograph.
    Really nice colours and a good composition.

    That you made it in the middle of the day, and
    in windy conditions is quite an achievement.

    Well done.

    John.

    Thank you all for taking time to comment, appreciate your advice regarding the composition.

    PhatMaverick: This is an excellent location with a lot of opportunities I think the evening would be the best time of the day for photo shooting. The sun is behind you and slightly on the left in summer time.

    jodal1975 and Deebo: You might be right I should do some cropping, will definitely visit this place and try again.

    John (5faythe): I’m glad you like it. I was happy that I could get one shot reasonably sharp in such conditions.

    Thanks

    I really do love everything about this shot. It’s everything I would strive to capture.. The slow speed for the water / colour / clouds and the sharpness. Sharpness is something that i seem to struggle with especially with wind / slow shutter so well done.

    A beautiful image. I quite like the clouds in but would also agree that it may benefit from a slight crop.

    Martin,
    I agree with all the above contributors, great shot…especially for time of day…sharpness, contrast, dof, etc., all spot on, I would also agree on cropping a small bit from bottom as well as top.
    well done,
    Mike

    i really like this!

    love the colours and the action in the water.

    The only thing I can pick on is the water in the foreground – its too dark.

    it looks like you have brought back the exposure – i would like to see brilliant
    strong whites in the foam there!

    Brilliant for me!…..Would crop a small piece of the sky to perfect but this is what landscape photography is all about IMO. Well done

    Well what can I say that wasn’t said already? Simply a great shot which deserves to be on the wall…
