  • Ignored

    The vast majority of images from Penmon Point seem to focus (no pun intended) on the lighthouse. However, as you will have noticed in a previous post, the lighthouse comes right up close to the rocky shoreline. This can make it tricky to isolate other than at a really high tide. Often overlooked, there is a marker buoy a little further out which lends itself a little better to the minimalist style of photography. Probably better seen on a bigger screen, and if I have done it right, you should get a larger view by clicking on the image.

  • Again…

    I haven’t finished with Penmon Lighthouse yet. There may be another, or I may move on to other images from our break in North Wales. Who knows…? The mist was a great help, meaning I did not have to blend the horizon to get a minimalist shot – there was no horizon visible. Result.

    This image cost me. The seaweed is very slippery, and I was probably not wearing the correct footwear. The result, as you may have guessed, was that I slipped and cracked my elbow. I didn’t cry, and I kept the camera safe. So I was determined to get an image after all that.
    The worst of it was that my wife, who was sat in a chair watching, didn’t see me fall and therefore I had no sympathy when I returned. She was too busy watching a heron.
    So this is the lighthouse at Penmon Point on Anglesey, and you may see a couple of additional versions over the next few days…
