the cobb a walk in black and white

[woody12]

HI, still shifting through hundreds of shots i took trying to improve whilst on hol in Dorset. Couldnt resist a walk along the cobb and converted to black and white. Not sure if the second works as well as i hoped. Thanks for looking

The harsh light lets them down IMO.
This is a spot you should have gone too for sunrise!

Thanks jake, love to go there for a sunrise not always possible while on holiday due to family and time. Need to spend a week on my own as there is so much opportunity. Perhaps when we move down there, very soon hopefully.

Are you moving down? Awesome!
I'm jealous! I've never been to the cobb, it's on the list though

Financially we can move just family commitments stopping us. The Cobb is worth a visit perhaps in winter with lashing wind and waves. When we went it was busy with everyone deciding to walk along it! Don't like shooting in the middle of the day, the best time is the golden hour without a doubt. Will try to process my work from Kimmeridge bay perfect location and we had the place to ourselves this year!

They had thirty foot waves there in February, that would have been spectacular, though you wouldn't have been on the Cobb.

Not for long anyway

I like the conversions.
Need to tweak the horizon in the second.
