Pilmore Dec 12 Portrait

This is the shot i wanted to retake from an older version a few years ago.The best thing about here is that this is a little further up the beach from the last set of breakers and you can move back here when the tide has covered the other ones.I love the way they make a natural lead all the way to Capel Island.It is the first time i got some decent clouds over the island and there was some lovely highlights from the setting sun.I think they are made for b&w shots.I have uploaded the colour version as well below.I got soaked here again as i couldnt resist wading back in to try get different effects from the waves and different exposures.I could have standed back a bit but the wide angle lens comes into its own here allowing you to get right up close and exaggerate the scale of the breakers.I slightly prefer this one to the next shot as there was a lovely pool of light creating another lead along the breaker.
