Saltwick Bay

[ST1]

I had a couple of days out earlier this week. One of the places I visited was Saltwick Bay. It was the first time I had ventured down to this bay, an interesting place which; seems to be popular with photographers. The rock formation sitting behind the wreck of the Admiral Van Tromp is Black Nab.

Anyway here's one of my efforts for your thoughts, comments and critique.


Three RAW files merged to HDR in PS5. Original EXIF ISO100, f16, 1/80 + 1/125 + 1/200

The Admiral Van Tromp was a Scarborough trawler that ran aground on 30/09/1976, two of the crew lost their lives in the incident. The exact circumstance of the accident remain a mystery as the boat was on completely the wrong course and a senior nautical surveyor at the inquest stated it appeared it was driven onto the rocks deliberately. Further details are available HERE

Nice, very subtle HDR.

Wow- I like this. I am going to North Yorkshire in July..........I may just drop by.

Your photo is a great capture although a little more detail in the white clouds would add something I thing

Nice capture Peter

I wouldn't have picked this as HDR, Peter, so well done with this technique. I wonder if it needs all the foreground, though.
