Blairgowrie Jumping Rock : Windy autumn morning . . .

This image is included in a gallery "by the sea" curated by Halina Larsson.

 

On the back beaches of Mornington Peninsula sits the Blairgowrie jumping rock, a jagged cliff perches over a turquoise rock pool at Bridgewater Bay. The sandstone arch is about 7 metre tall. At low tides, rock pools with turquoise water a few metre deep become apparent. A lot of adventurous people jump off the cliff into those rock pools. Looking beyond is Port Phillip Bay.

 

I went there on a windy Autumn morning. The winds were close to howling and white waves were incessantly attacking the shore and cliffs. I had to put a finger on the camera horseshoe to steady the set up despite a sturdy tripod was used. The shifting clouds made the landscape look atmospheric.
