long exposure beach locations - hants dorset

[stewsmith]

Hi I am looking for a few beach locations on the south coast, preferably hants or dorset. I want to do a few long exposures over looking the water with some rocks in the foreground. I would be greatful for a few recommended locations.

Kimmeridge is the most obvious choice?

West Wittering beach just south of Chichester has some beautiful sunsets in October/November. No Rocks but plenty of foreground interest. Tide can go out for 1/4 mile.

Not Dorset or Hants but only just over the border.

Would ditto Kimmeridge. Beautiful place, especially at sunset.

As said kimmeridge, lulworth, Dordle door.

Keyhaven, Hampshire - shingle beach with rocks in places. Also try Hengistbury Head as there's more of a beach there than Kimmeridge Bay (although the light is exceptional at Kimmeridge with an outgoing tide exposing the ledges).

Have a scout round Adam Burton's site for inspiration: http://www.adam-burton.co.uk/gallery/index.php?cat=50

Cheers for all of the replies.

Mr Burton surely has some inspirational work on his website, thanks for the link

Mupe bay and stair hole are also good, either side of lulworth cove.

Feel free to check my site, probably not quite up there with adam burton, but it has a fair few places around dorset in it, that might help.

I think perhaps you are being slightly modest there, cracking images. In particular the Durdle Door shot. Great angle and composition. I am back home for the BH weekend so I will fight with the other thousands of tourists and get down there. Kinneridge certainly looks the place for when the sun is down and the sky is filled with burnt oranges and purples. Thanks for the link to your site.
