Cornwall Holiday May 2016 day 1

Arriving in Cornwall at our usual caravan site at Cubert near Newquay/Holywell bay    We set up then drive down to Holywell to give the Holywell Horrors a run on the beach as they have been stuck in the car for 6 & half hours ..

                                                            Gull Rock is a great landmark!

 

Jan looks very Happy 

 

 After dinner we have decided to go to Bedruthan Steps for the evening ,  im not sure if we can get down onto the beach as the tide might be still too high.            After walking down to the cliff edge it is clear we are NOT going to get down onto the beach!      But its a lovley walk along the cliff tops anyhow with the flowers open , We have always been here later in the summer and therefor  have not seen them so will make for some great images.

        The sun is low now giving nice long shadows, a long exposure smooths out the water .

                                               80 seconds  f14 with big stopper nd filter

 There are some big waves crashing onto the rocks , along exposure smoothes out the spray over the rocks.

                400mm lens image with a fast  1/500 th shutterspeed to freeze the water movement.

        The setting sun has reflected onto the spray thrown up as the waves crash against the rocks.
