Solar Flare
On the chance I could capture a different location at high tide and sunset, I went over to the shore only to find that the tide wasn't nearly high enough for what I wanted and the sun was in the totally wrong place. As I had made the three-minute arduous expedition to the shore anyway, I played around with a few long exposures of the waves over the shore rocks and was just about to pack up when I decided I might as well wait and see if the sky did anything interesting as the sun was going down - then got lucky with this lovely 'solar flare' effect. Shot as a vertical pano to get in the foreground rocks and the sky.
