Sunset over Porthmeor Bay, St Ives

One from my recent holiday in Saint Ives, Cornwall. I got my feet a bit wet when taking this one, but I think it was worth it.

Technical info: iso 100, f/32, tripod, 3 shot HDR processed in photomatix pro

Tin mine, cornwall

This ruin (I think it’s called “Giew Mine”) is on the road between St Ives and Penzance - you can see St Michael’s mount on one side, and the Godrevy lighthouse on the other. Lovely place.

This is a slightly odd composition, but it all seems to hang together for me.

Ali looking out over Porthmeor

This shot was taken from a little chapel overlooking Porthmeor bay, in St Ives.  It’s normally full of surfers but it was a quiet evening, so not many about.

This is on the verge of being a bit too HDR-ified for me - but I think the colours and texture of ali’s coat have swung it.  I think it has a nice dreamy quality to it.

Some vaguely technical info: HDR, 3 bracketed images (AEB), iso 100, f/22, canon 450d, tripod, combined in photomatix pro.
