Beachy Head in East Sussex, the highest chalk cliffs in Britain at approx 500 feet. This shot was hand-held after the wind blew my tripod over, as I was about 4 feet from the cliff edge at the time I was probably still shaking.

Chris: I can answer that one for Rob. Those cliffs are constantly collapsing - build the lighthouse on top of the cliff and eventually it will fall. Much safer to build it in the water ;)

There´s a human being on the top left. Good scene. I like it.

Great perspective... the height of the cliff was really emphasized. 8

wow! i wish i was there! i love the tiny person on the top of the cliff (really gives u a better idea at how grand it al is) and how the lighthouse is semi submerged in the clear water. Did I already say i wish i was there? hehe

I like the perspective of this image with the obscured subject on the cliff.

good composition, but lighting is quite flat.

Wonderful composition. I like the 3 different layered colors of the sea, it works in well with the lighter color of the sky. Does that lighthouse go far underwater?

I like this very much.

Amazing photo... Why is the light house in the water instead of on top of the cliff? An engineering disaster. :)

Nice picture. That Light House sure looks small from way up there.
Good work.

I mountain bike this route daily, twice daily spring - autumn. Good luck!. I think you were wise to ensure a high horizon line - it works very well.

Amazing place, hope to see more of this area from you.

NICE POINT OF VIEW!!

Beautiful! (and chilly I'll bet)
01/14/2004 09:21:08 AM
nice picture, but where is the point of view creativeness?
