New Eyes...

Thanks to Lynda, who you might have seen commenting on Jez Coulson's self-portrait here, for sending me this photograph of a sign taken during her recent trip into Shenandoa National Park:

I've been on vacation myself, mostly sitting on top of a Cornish cliff-top but, each day at dawn or sunset (on the days it wasn't raining cats & dogs ;-) I would trip down to a little cove a few yards from our holiday home.  

I wanted to capture a sense of the beautiful 'edges' between the rock and sea. Every day, with different light and the tide gently shifting, the place would look different. It felt like all I had to do was keep looking...

Here is one of my current faves:

There's more where that came from and I might indulge myself again on Photo-Dialogue as I figure out what to do with them.  For the meanwhile, I'd just like to go back there see it again with 'new eyes...'

Wow! Gorgeous photo! Could be rock and sea, or rock and sky. Love the contrast.

p.s. --- my Shenandoah photo comes through as a broken link :-(

Ooops, my fault, I think. Have re-loaded your Shenandoah image so I hope it works now. It's not much of a post without it!

Thanks for the comments on the rock photo...;-) You never really know what you're going to get with those long exposures!
