"Steps Into The Blue"

I took this shot of rocks leading towards the sea at Watergate Bay on my first visit to the beach.

Not really knowing what to expect, I arrived in the evening on a receding mid tide. This worked perfectly - the retreating tide left "clean" sand behind and revealed rocks sitting in shallow pools of water which I was able to use as points of interest.

I made the mistake though, of rushing out without a hat and gloves - getting caught in icy hail showers was no fun at all! The cold definitely distracted my concentration from taking photos a little.

Canon 6D MkII | 24-105mm lens at 24mm | ƒ-11 | 1.3 sec | ISO 100 | Lee Hard Grad Filters (taken 02-04-2019)
