Porthleven - Black and White photograph

Black and White photograph of Porthleven

An interesting photograph of the peir at Porthleven. The sea spray has softened the focus as well as the apature being set to around f3.5 to reduce the distant focus.

I really like the way the clouds and the hard line of the pier take you into the photograph, leading the eye into the middle distance. As well as the contrast of the white sea spume against the dark granite structure of the pier.

This photograph is pretty much off camera. The only area I have really adjusted is the clouds. I dodged and burned over them a little bit, to increase the darkness and contrast on the bottom of them.

There are a few more pictures of Porthleven here,

I would love for you to comment on this post and tell me your thoughts about this photograph, or any others on the Digital-scene blog.
