Pebble beach at low tide.

View On Black

This one I shot an hour before sunset at Porth nanven. Why not wait till sunset you might ask.. Well I had not enough evenings to get in all the coasts I wanted so I had to do two Coasts this evening ;-) For sunset I went to the nearby Priest Cove which is also quite nice. But next time I get to Cornwall I will do a lengthly shoot at Porth Nanven for sure, and take more than 3 Pictures!! But It still came out quite good.

Here's the complete story behind this shot -> mibreit-photo.com/blog/?p=450

It was about 4 years since I had been at this location, tucked away down a small lane lies this amazing beach at Porth Nanven in the Cot Valley, last time I was here the tide was right in and the light wasn't great so I was hoping for better this time around.

On the trip I only visited here once and the light certainly played ball this time, also the tide being out allowed for more of the beach features to be included this time and also for the sunlight to cascade over the sand and rocks, I managed a few differently composed shots from this location this evening, this one being one of my favourites, this is definitely one of those locations you could visit every night for a month and come away with something unique each time.

The islands in rear are known as 'The Brisons' and (although I honestly cant see it myself...), they are said to resemble General Charles de Gaulle lying on his back.
