Sinister Sitter

55mm · f/8.0 · 1/25s · ISO 64

Artillery Rocks on Victoria's west coast provide endless opportunities for photography, with a huge variety of natural sculptures just waiting for a portrait.

In this case, the jagged, forbidding nature of the rocks suggested a dark, brooding, threatening approach. Tiny 5mm shells dot the entire area, adding a counterpoint.

Thank you! I really wasn't sure if anyone else would see anything in this image.

Pretty cool! Is this the original color or did you turn it into a b/w?

Thanks. This was pretty much how it looked. I've tweaked the contrast and emphasised the pattern the rock ridges make.
