Title: Durdle Door, a Dorset's classic
Post by: Vieri Bottazzini on June 12, 2017, 02:29:58 am
Probably the most famous landmark on Dorset's Coast, Durdle Door is definitely impressive and a real sight to behold. Here I shot it at sunset, but it's beautiful at sunrise as well.

With the Leica SL and the spectacularly wide Voigtlander 10mm Hyper Wide Heliar with Formatt-Hitech 100mm filters used through the extremely useful Bombo adapter. Thanks for viewing, best regards

Great, clean, simple (in a good way), with not too many elements in the frame.
Well done.

I agree with Chairman Bill and francois that it  is a lovely shot with its simple uncomplicated composition but would add " and subtle credible colours ". Absolutely beautiful.

Agreed. The lovely subtle colours add a lot and the framing, with the dramatic cloud formation in the centre and great space to the right, is superb.

Thank you Francois, I am glad you enjoyed the composition - it is my philosophy to work towards simplification, removal of distractions and elements I don't judge important in composing my images, and I am glad you liked the result here :)

A great image from a well covered location.  You love to see the processing of this Vieri.

Wonderful. I would like to see a little bit more on the left, a bit more cliff, and more room for the wave to breathe.

A lovely soft "non wow" shot and all the better for it. Ken
