Winter sea defences...


Ignoring the ever increasing backlog of photo files that need some sort of attention I'm out of the house before dawn, and riding into an eye-watering easterly wind; this time towards Christchurch Harbour.
The sun rises at 8.09 am as a hazy ball - no strong directional light - so I search out a scene to include the sun in the composition. I shoot a number of images of a cormorant perched on a groyne marker, drying its wings, but it's a rock groyne itself at Hengistbury Head that produces the best image of the morning.

12-24 mm f/4G Nikkor. 1/250 second at f/11. +0.33EV. ISO 400. 0.9 grey grad filter.
