I just love this image I took on Tramore Beach last week.
It was such a moment of serendipity.
I was trying to photograph the sunset,which had just disappeared behind the metal man, when two things happened; a pair of speed boat boy racers came in from stage left just as a perfect couple with dog decided to enter stage right.
The couple and dog posed, looking at the boats, legs beautifully synchronised like a chorus line while the sun spotlit everyone in its afterglow.
All I had to do was press the shutter.
It worked so well I just wondered how it would look cropped;
That worked too, so I cropped it again:
This one I also liked.
Any comments? Anyone got a preference?

Love from Berlin where snow falls uber der lindens! Does Sunday brunch in the snow in Prenzlauerberg beat a windy walk on Tramore Beach?

on November 11, 2007What a lovely picture this is. I like the top one best as it gives a sense of the scale of Tramore beach, while still managing to show in the distance that great local landmark, the Metal Man. In fact I like it so much I’m going to use it as a screensaver.

on November 11, 2007Thanks Betty, and Isabel, the consensus is for the bigger picture, I’m tempted to get it blown up to poster size.
