Castle Rock: At dawn with imminent rain . . .
This image is included in 2 galleries:- 1) "Fels und Gestein, VIII." curated by Götz Wiedenroth and 2) "UN NUEVO ENCUENTRO." by Maria Cristina Umpiérrez.
This image was taken near the brand new Saddle Lookout in the famous Shipwreck Coast Precinct along Great Ocean Road.
This sharp, wedge-like 230 foot tall headland separates Gog and Magog to the left and the 5 and a half Apostles to the right that are still standing. Over millions of years, nature sculptured the tip of the limestone into a shape resembling the turret of a medieval castle.
On an overcast, misty, spring dawn, the light was soft, and the subtle colours and the beautiful texture of the rock face could easily be appreciated. The clouds looked angry, the sea was rough, with varying shades of blue and green and on-rushing foamy waves. For a brief moment the sun broke through thick clouds, the colour changes were dramatic and the scene was surreal and sublime. Beyond the horizon is Bass Strait, which is part of the Twelve Apostles Marine National Park.
