I like this but I think that it would work better in B&W I think that would set the sky off more

were you dodging and burning?
the rocks seem to have a halo around them
Very, very nice Geof. I'm fond of B&W, and this may look good in that medium, as well, but I like this almost surreal look. You've pushed the PP to the edge, but kept it just in check. There's a 3-D quality that is very appealing. I was going to say this has a Middle Earth look to it, but have changed my mind...it's more of an H.G. Wells "Journey to the Center of the Earth" shot. Thanks for sharing!
Sorry, but I'm not liking this one, IMHO of course.
For me the follwoing would help
I'd like to see the sandy path start on the left hand third having rock to the right and left of it all the way through the frame. As it it is you've cropped the water and the sand on the left hand corner.
There is too much rock on the right hand side which takes up too much opf the frame and doesn't hold enough interest to justify the space it takes. A lower angle would help, and would also help with my next point.
There is not enough sky, which looks like it has the potential to add something extra to the frame. A lower angle would have helped.
However, in saying all the above, the location looks to have great potential.
Though I see you're from Manchester so hopefully the holiday isn't over!
Nice shot Geof.
Let me know your opinion if you cropped off the right to the sand and the left to the vertical crack in the rock about 8mm in.
a fair comment..i use a laptop and no matter which way you look you cant get the shot to be the same intensityJust checked back in now I'm on the home computer.
I still think the composition could be improved, but the colour in the rocks is much better on my home computer
Hi Geof,
I like this image just as it is. It really makes me want to go forward and explore what lies beyond.

Lovely exposure nice detail throughout
You certainly are getting a grip of this wonderful world of P+P, its IMO a cracker
