Description One of many shots I took along a spectacular section of the Victorian coastine where limestone cliffs have been eaten away, leaving pinnacles off the coast.

This is quite wonderful to me. Having grown up in an area with a sandstone coastline I am used to very different topography and colours. I love it.

No - it's a bit further along the coast. There are hundreds of them. . . But the same kind of thing.

Great shot. I got any idea for a diffent shot for you. The same thing only at sunset or sunrise.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

wildplaces In reply to deadkenndys1105 [2006-03-12 00:54:24 +0000 UTC]

Sunrise wouldn't work because it would be completely in shadow. . . The sunset would be behind this rock leaving it as a silhouette. . . I tried sunrise and sunset shots along the coast. Not as good as I'd hoped for.

They certainly do. At first I wished the cliffs to the right weren't in shadow - but I kind of like them that way in this shot.
