Hi Alphaboo... Looks very surreal that does ... Is it a composite? Looks like you inhabit a beautiful part. of the country too..

Thank you guys for your very kind comments, it was a long exposure single image taken earlier in the year at a very photographed location near me.  The heavy rain had led to a lot of water running down the valley which cut an interesting  path out to sea. This left me with a different composition than those I have seen from here before.  Another I took on the day won an award at a local gallery but this was my favourite .  Thank you for the welcome I will find time to visit and enjoy other folks work.

Thanks Tony ... the only reason I thought it might have been a composite was the most unusual sharp edges  made by the sand... one can see a long exposure has been utilised to great effect ... it certainly adds to the surreal feel to the image ..  do  post some more ...  the one that you won an award with would be a good start ...I'm intrigued as you prefer the one you have posted .... Did you enter them both ?
