Tidepool Hopeman


ian cameron

The sun had long since set and only a few broken strands of crimson remained in the deepening twilight. I found the coloursumptuous and restful but needed something for the eye to latch onto. I found a seaweed covered rock in a tidepool with water etched rivulets in wet sand draining into the basin around the rock. I felt the detail present was just interesting enough to catch the eye but not detract from the impact of the cool dark colours. Please feel free to visit my website, Transient light, There are some superb new shots at Timecatcher too.

Gentle twilight colours and wet sand punctuated by rocks around which

are tide pools with water etchings draining through sand into the

basin.

This is really supberb. You obviously have patience and it's always great to see the results of someone who planned and got up early to achieve a 'possibility'. Thanks

The gradual transition from sky to sea, enhanced by the reflection, is appealing. I also like the drainage lines leading to the foreground rock, and the presence of the far offshore rock. I think I'd like to pivot just slightly to remove the portion of the rock showing on the right side at the horizon line; it doesn't contribute to the image, and it's slightly distracting....I don't want my eye drawn to that part of the image. Very peaceful image.

So here I am back 4 years later (courtesy of the random image generator), and I don't think I agree with my previous comment regarding the rock on the horizon line. I now think it helps to keep my eye from wandering up and out of the frame. Still a beautiful and wonderful image.
