Cornish sunset

A photo taken on the north coast of Cornwall as it came from the camera. No PP or filters etc, would love some feedback on the shot.

I love this shot it is really something quite special an amazing sky and lovely firey colours.

I don't really know what to suggest to improve it as I love it as is, the only thing personally with me being from Devon is maybe you could clone the bits of Cornwall out Only Joking it is a great county and has a stunning coastline my wife lived in Cornwall for 20 years so I spent a lot of time with her there until she eventually move in with me.

I digress great shot and one to be really proud of great work.

Treyamon Bay, between Padstow & Newquay, I took about 30 shots as each time i looked the sky was getting redder & redder .

Treyarnon bay, just south of Trevose golf club. When the wind gets up and the North Atlantic swell hits the coast these places make for exciting times.

I hope to go down to Rock over the coming August bank holiday weekend (god help me!). I've been going down to this area since I was a child. It's a beautiful part of the country.

Lovely colors, for me if there were to be a guy with his surfboard silhouetted against the sun it would be even better! i always try and include a human in my pictures, it gives it a human element can make it more interesting and could give scale. Nice pic.

Lovely shot Garry. I also think that it's perfect as it is. Very tranquil. Brad thinks that it needs a human element, I disagree. I think that it's perfect as is because until you said where it was (and spoilt my illusion of a deserted island in the tropics somewhere) it could be anywhere far from civilization and, in my opinion, putting a human element in would spoil it or detract from it..... But hey........ that's only my opinion"!!!!!!!!!!
