Taken at Fontygary here in the Vale of Glamorgan, here is an image that shows the steel railings and natural beach stone steps that help you go down onto the lower beach. At high tide the beach is engulfed and recaptured by the incoming tide and the railings and steps are partially submerged by the sea. Shooting at a long exposure has turned the very ferocious incoming tide with its swells and raging power into a calm and ethereal blanket of soft water with minimal texture and shooting after the sun had set has resulted in this much cooler image.

A stunning image that would look in place either within a home space or business due to its commercial appeal.
