Epic
It's really not often I use that word, but then again it's really not often that literally everything comes together like this did...
Another evening at Elgol and the conditions were absolutely Epic, no other word, immense golden warm side light picking out all the details on the rock faces, and illuminating the waves, along with a completely biblical sky due to the stormy nature of the day.
The scarred rock face here although very interesting to look at can look quite drab and can easily be lost in the scene, but as I've seen before here when it catches the sunlight it absolutely glows fiery yellow and really comes to life, not long after we got here it was like someone turning on a massive light switch and it just kicked off in style, I've lost count of the amount of images I got from here but this is definitely one of my faves so far.
When the light died down it looked as that was going to be the lot, I made my way back towards the car park keeping one eye on the conditions, as the sun went under the horizon, though the quite dense cloud we were treated to another ten mins or so of natures lightshow in a completely different really dramatic deep red / purple colour, so I even managed another load of shots from a different location! a truly unbelieveable shoot, I almost felt a bit guilty coming away with so much stuff! (almost)
I'll post the others up in due course.
Lots more images on my personal website here - regularly updated
