Landscape Photo Competition 2013 No 2 : Entry Number 504
Photographers Comment
This photo was taken on the Bay of Laig on the Isle of Eigg in Scotland. The Isle of Rum is in the background.
I was attending a photography workshop led by Bruce Percy, this was a top notch experience in every way. I would recommend to anyone wishing to improve their photography skills to attend any one of Bruces world wide workshops. He is a gentleman, an amazing portrait and landscape photographer, and an incredible teacher.
One of the many beautiful things about this beach is that when the waves receded, small stationary stones kicked up a darker color of sand that provided amazing patterns. With each wave, there was an entirely different pattern, this provided endless possibilities. The rain was just picking up again when I began this exposure, but luckily there was an offshore breeze so the rain did not soak the filters I had in front of the lens.
