The Britannia

Taken this morning at Holy Island. Bitterly cold but a lovely little sunrise made the trip worthwhile. As always, comments and crit are more than welcome!

This is a great subject in a very cool light…
I would have liked to see that you worked the shot!

Lovely colours and nicely composed.

Great shot Danny. Definitely worth getting put of bed for. I wondered whether to crop off some of the foreground but decided I like the milky water movement towards the bottom of the frame.

Thanks K. Yeah I have few more from different angles - it was kinda hard to move around as the sand/mud was trying to swallow me.

Lovely colours and nicely composed.

Cheers Stephen!

Thanks Peter - the 5am alarm was just about worth it! I agree - if the foreground was a bit more boring I'd chop it but couldn't bare to lose the swirl

Very pretty image Danny.
I like how the rope leads out of the frame at almost ground level.

The PoV is perfect with the boat prominent in the frame and the castle off in the distance. The milky water in the foreground is a nice touch too.

Thanks Steve - I'm pretty happy with it (first one in a while). Might see what it's like in print.
