Black Sabbath Sunset.
It has been an awful day in Lancashire with torrential rain, but the forecast said the rain would clear just before sunset. So I went to the headland at Heysham and it didn't look promising! But as I walked towards the ancient 5th Century St Patricks Chapel the skyline began to clear. I set up to get these rock cut graves, carved out of the sandstone headland, with the setting sun over the sea. I used a NISI S5 filter system with a circular polariser, Reverse ND Grad and soft grad on my Nikon 14-24.
These rock cut graves were created for high status individuals around the 11th Century and have rock cut sockets created for wooden crosses. I later found out that these graves were used for the "The Best of Black Sabbath” Album cover.Hence the title of the image!!
