Coastal Gazing - a photo on Flickriver

Coastal Gazing

            This image was originally captured back in June 2016 during my first night along the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall. However not my first night capturing the Milky Way in Cornwall. I decided to revisit some images from the past and use the recent learnt methods in the present.

The idea was to capture the Milky Way with Kyance Cove (just behind where the image was taken), in the foreground. There was one problem, this idea was not going to happen, at least not for another four months. And to rub salt into the wound I would not find this out until six years later when I decided to revisit this idea. Believe it or not I do find the humour in this. 

Not to be put off, two nights later I was back out capturing the night sky. That would be my last time photographing the night sky until May 2020.

Taken in: UK / England / Landewednack / Lizard (show map)
