So having taken a fair number of shots of Beachy Head lighthouse (see last post), the incoming tide forced us to make our way back around the cliffs. On our way we noticed a gap in the clouds with some sunlight poking through. Realising it wouldn’t last long we quickly headed toward a flat patch of sand (just a few meters away) to set up to capture the light before it was gone. It lasted just a few minutes.
Really pleased I captured this and when I saw it on the computer screen it cried out to be made black and white. I’ve gone for my usual high contrast look to really emphasise the drama.
Processed in Topaz B&W Effects and Lightroom 5.
