Tripping The Light Fantastic, Peel Ports, Liverpool

This is my second image shared from my sunset shoot down at Crosby Beach in Merseyside a couple of nights ago. I bumped into local photographer Dominic Darvell who very kindly offered up a suggestion or two on what to shoot in the area and this scene was one of those suggestions.

The secret in capturing this shot is to wait for the tide to recede until the water offers up some great reflections of the tall shipping container cranes in the distance. It's quite a narrow window of opportunity as the water had dropped too much within a couple of minutes of taking this shot, rendering the reflections non-existent.

Thanks to Dominic for his company and for his local knowledge of the area. It is always a pleasure shooting with local folk who possess a great deal of experience and knowledge in shooting their local area.
