Deceptive these photos! Judging from this picture one could get the impression that the sun is splitting the stones, however there’s much wrong with that assumption. The photo was taken at 09h31 but there was still ice on the ground. The photo is all wrong for the total overexposure but that’s the magic of the new generation SLR’s… the on-board computer does quite a bit of adjusting to tone down the sunlight. Imagine pointing a film camera in this direction and pulling the trigger…
PS – I’m still harassing folk for votes for yesterday’s photo… please scroll down and read… and if you’ll be so kind, follow the instructions to cast a vote!! There’s only a few days remaining so maybe I’ll be lucky and win the lens… but I need MANY more votes to do that!!
PS – If you’re wondering, the photo was taken looking out toward the Irish Sea while walking along the North Bull Wall.
I absolutely love that shot! I live on the sun, you know.
