This image was captured with a telephoto zoom lens from a considerable distance. Such an approach is uncommon in landscape photography, yet I chose to remain afar — for good reason. The place, known as Cadillac Gorge near San Remo, possesses a beauty both austere and perilous. Beneath its brooding cliffs, the restless sea breathes with deceptive calm before breaking into sudden fury. Local fishermen know its temperament too well; from time to time, a rogue wave surges without warning, sweeping the unwary from the rocks into the cold embrace of the Bass Strait. From afar, the gorge appears serene — a meeting of wind, water, and rugged stone — yet its silence carries the echo of untold stories, both majestic and tragic.

Gorgeous light in your landscape, long exposure photo. You have good reasons to use your telephoto lens.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it just looked deadly to walk into it
DeleteIt amazes me how you capture the mist. Simply gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe sea mist is really tricky for timing
DeletePues en formato panorámica queda muy bien. El mar es peligroso y traicionero, sobre todo si no lo conoces.
ReplyDeleteNo way I gonna walk in there
DeleteGood choice, and I like the pano crop. In fact I probably would have made it even more extreme by cropping some off the bottom.
ReplyDeleteYes, a tighter crop would show the subject better
DeleteSuperb.
ReplyDeleteTripod sinks into the sand too. Not easy to do with a large telephoto lens
DeleteAparentemente el lugar aparece tranquilo e invita a acercarse y a permanecer mirando el horizonte. A solas escuchando con atención el sonido de las olas y sintiendo el viento en la cara el momento debe resultar espectacular. Otra cosa es que eso pueda resultar peligroso. Lastima.
ReplyDeleteAbrazo
That is way too turbulent to even climb up the rocks
DeleteEso es lo que tiene teleobjetivo. No hace falta acercarse mucho para conseguir la imagen deseada.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo.
But loses the impact through wide angle lens
DeleteLa imatge és fantàstica.
ReplyDeleteFas bé de no apropar-t'hi.
Salutacions, James!
Thank you, I stay safe
DeleteA wonderful photo
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting place. Appearing serene, but not. And the waves look like fog. I love the wide aspect and the yellow sky as well.
ReplyDeleteThe whole location is back lit. So hard to get a lovely sunset
DeleteHay que escuchar a aquellos que conocen el terreno y si te dicen que cuando menos te lo esperas se te viene encima una ola mejor no tentar la suerte.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
