One man bridge S Ib, a photo from Cornwall, England

Photographer's Note

My second picture from England
One hour for the dance evening I've a small stroll making with my wife along the coast from the wonderful city of Newquay. This is result of a small strolls.
I've different taken picture.

Harbour beach is Newquay's smallest beach, and a bit of a sun trap. It's a small area of sand which gets covered at high tide, when the fishing boats arrive with their daily catch. The beach is very popular with families due to its safe sheltered bathing and easy access.

I hope you like it.

Hello John,
A very good composition of the beach. I like the framing by the railings and the contrast between this and the suspension bridge above. Excellent colours and clarity.

barni (15751) 2007-10-19 8:53

Hello John
Un trθs bon point de vue.
Par contre le contraste est un peu fort.
Have a nice day

Dag John,
must be a pleasant area for a stroll and standing on that bridge or the rocks looking to the sea would be a thing really to enjoy. Good integration of the foreground balustrade and a nice view through the rocks to the beach. I like the warm colours and listen to the waves.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

evanrizo (462) 2007-10-19 9:53

Hi John, in a difficult situation with this background the bridge is very good written and comes very good to see.
The colors are fantastic.
The light control very good, great with the people on the beach.
Have a nice time.

carper (96) 2007-10-19 10:06

geen gemakkelijke foto John,
met al die horizontale lijnen, maar ik moet zeggen dat de uitvoering uitstekend is, wat ik trouwens wel van U gewend ben, mooie dieptewerking, goede kleuren, prettig weekend.
groet Jaap

pasternak (15185) 2007-10-19 10:18

Hi John, nice one, with the contrast of lines (horisontal vs diagonal), pleasant place, and some English grass is also there.

Have a nice weekend
Alexander

jonathan_hart (21276) 2007-10-19 10:40

hey John
interesting POV, well captured, fine colours

pboehringer (770) 2007-10-19 10:47

John,
a very interesting composition with a repetitive pattern in the foreground with that fence and the same or similar in the background at the bridge. The gap between the two rock towers and the baech in the lower portion are very good and provide a fantastic sense of depth. Good that you were capabel to place some people down there to give the right impression of size of this place.
Regards, Peter

Hello John,

Un cadrage rιussi et une composition bien pensιe !
J'aime bien la symιtrie des lignes du pont dans le haut de l'image et de la barriθre dans le bas !
Le cadre ainsi crιι est trθs bien vu !

Mooie foto, John.
Ik vind dat diepe groen erg mooi en de twee ijzerwerken zo boven elkaar.

Hi John,
well captured shot of a good perspective and light control. The colours are nice and well exposed, while the atmosphere looks pleasant and relaxing there. Good work! Tfs and best regards.

siolaw (38294) 2007-10-19 18:10

Hi John,
A funny little bridge between these two rocks! Well saturated colors and sharp details. The FG railings reminds the bridge and gives good depth. Special nice beach and sea colors!
Laurent

emjleclercq (15778) 2007-10-19 23:07

Very nice point of view of the small narrow bridge between the two cliffs, with a good sea and beach background. But I am a bit mixed (contrary to some of the critisizers) with the railing in the foreground.

All the best,

Emmanuel

ribeiroantonio (22730) 2007-10-19 23:46

Wow, what a clean, colourful and very sharp picture. The scenery is beautiful and that bridge very, very interesting. The composition is excellent and using the foreground railing was a very smart idea as it really adds depth to the whole frame. Well done.
Antonio

vincz (19113) 2007-10-20 1:51

Nice compsotion, great depth and beautiful colors. A very pleasant image.

ChrisJ (160104) 2007-10-20 2:18

Hi John

Nice division into both horizontal & vertical thirds. Excellent colour, sharpness, & lighting contrasts. I like the bg bridge, & fg railing, linking all the compositional elements together. Tfs!

bostankorkulugu (42832) 2007-10-20 2:58

looks like a beautiful beach from this point of view through the rocks... and that one man bridge is connecting what john... the rainy mood and the pastel tones in the sea and the sky are all very nice...

all the best,

korkut

Jean-Luc (5488) 2007-10-20 3:53

Bonjour John,
Il est curieux ce petit pont avec ce premier plan qui ιvoque une symιtrie assez originale.
Donc une composition rιussie avec de bonnes couleurs saturιes.
Amicalement
Jean-Luc

pierrefonds (103621) 2007-10-20 4:37

Hi John,

A good POV of Harbour beach, of the sea and of the rocks, the photo has a very good composition, DOF and nice colors. Thanks for sharing.

Hi John, good one with that unusual bridge over the beach, well composed with excellent quality and beatiful colours.
thanks, ciao

Hello John,

Many levels to this photo. I like that it takes some time to travel trough it and discover all of it's elements. Good strong colors and details.

Have a good weekend - Paul

alvaraalto (42318) 2007-10-20 14:17

Hallo John,
Het dubbele hekwerk op deze foto maakt het een extra boeiende compositie. Trouwens ik denk dat lopen over deze brug ook een belevenis is.
groet Rob

danyy (0) 2007-10-20 14:32

Bonjour John,
un coin bien choisi et une photo qui le cadre bien.
Dommage que le pont cache juste la ligne d'horizon, ce qui gκne un peu pourla profondeur.
Les couleurs sont splendides.
Je trouve que l'encadrement blanc est aussi un peu trop imposant, ta photo gagnerait en dιfinition si elle ιtait plus grande et sans cadre.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Mafo (1339) 2007-10-20 15:05

Hello John,
Interesting composition, nice colors and clarity. You have a excelent presentation of the bridge

Mooie compositie met fraaie kleuren. Ik wacht op de volgende foto's va,n jouw overtocht naar Engeland.
Prettige zondag
Guy

josepmarin (59385) 2007-10-21 10:10

Hi John,
I like the geometry of lines of the bridge in background and the diagonal of the rail in foreground, thanks to an excellent setting. The frame that the rocks and the bridge form to the beach and the sea is splendid, gives a nice graphism to the composition.
It is a good work.
Best regards,
Josep

papagolf21 (152599) 2007-10-21 10:45

Bonjour, mon ami John,
Une image insolite d'une plage avec ce pont suspendu. C'est bien la premiθre fois que je vois cela !
Voilΰ qui entre tout ΰ fait dans l'esprit de TE, montrer par l'image et nous apprendre par le biais des notes d'accompagnement.
Dιcidιment, mes yeux ont du mal ΰ se dιfaire de cette image curieuse !
Amitiιs.
Philippe

Philippe (11836) 2007-10-21 11:38

Dag, John. De horizontale lijnen van de reling en de brug geven een goede diepte aan het beeld. De brugt onderlijnt de scheiding tussen hemel en aarde. Het strand zit geklemd tussen de horizontale lijnen. Een goede compositie dus met goede contrasten en mooie groene tonen.

Emile (20352) 2007-10-21 16:01

Hola John.
Nice shot with a great composition, good colors contrast and captured from a great POV. The fence and sharp green grass in the fg give some depth to your wonderful shot with the bridge and beautiful sea in the back. Very good sharpness and details.
Well done. TFS.
Best regards.

gneufeld (15890) 2007-10-21 16:05

Hi John,
A very fine image with perfect perspective, very nicely saturated colors, and stunning clarity and details. Great composition in excellent light featuring that interesting bridge the is appropriately aligned with the horizon in the distance. Great shot and TFS. Gerald

singuanti (15250) 2007-10-21 20:04

Hi John. Given how large this landscape is its wise to use the wide-angle here. The view through that large notch is quite nice too. The greens are all so nice and saturated. Perfect shot John!

saylan-cb (12738) 2007-10-22 2:48

Hi John,
A nice bridge in this very good composition.
I like the POV and how you framed it. Excellent colours and details.
TFS and have a nice week
Aires

Didi (61589) 2007-10-22 3:03

Bonsoir Jhon
Je me souviens bien de ce pont suspendu, nous ιtions sur les rochers pour ramasser des moule, nous avons appris ΰ nos amis Anglais ΰ cuisiner les moules mariniθres au vin blanc.
Le problθme c'ιtait de trouver une bouteille de vin blanc sec.
On achetait le vin dans une pharmacie.
Intιressant point de vue sur la plage.
Amitiιs.

hdl (7035) 2007-10-22 5:02

Dag John. Ik heb de indruk dat dit stukje Engeland je wel een bevalt (je hebt er al eerdere gemaakt). Het ziet er in ieder geval heel aangenaam uit. Het stukje in de voorgrond zorgt voor goede diepte en de dubbele reling (voorgrond en brug) maken een mooie herhaling. Aangename kleuren maken dit beeld helemaal af. Mooi werk en tot later.

pablominto (53746) 2007-10-22 9:45

Hello John,
An attractive view to the beach and surroundings, nicely framed by nature itself!
Rich colours and good details, in particular the greenery seems to thrive in England the summer of '07...
Good foreground interest, and I notice the bridge!
Greetings,
Pablo -

jlbrthnn (76041) 2007-10-22 10:03

Hi Jonh!
Very nice image, with a beautiful beach on the background! The water colora, and fence in first plan are great!
Congratulations and hug!

Nice composition with two lines - of the fence and bridge. Lovely colours and interesting place.
Have a nice day.

Hi John!
This is a perfect composition.I like the repetition of the grating at the bridgeconstruction and the view at the sea between these rocks.The green of the vegatation contrasts so well with the soft tones of the beach and the sea.
Regards,Leo

Hallo John, u bent weer eens overgestoken en met een prachtig resulaat! De bijzondere combinatie van het parkachtige gecultiveerde landschap met het strand en zijn rotsen zijn zeer overtuigend in het frame gezet en de definitie is zoals we die we gewend zijn. Heel mooi werk en goed u weer te zien!
Een fijne avond uit een helder Rotterdam bij 9,8 gr.

JCG (35153) 2007-10-23 11:21

Hi John,

Quite romantic this small bridge above the beach. It is also a pretty point of observation. An image with the very soft and pleasant colors. An interesting photograph and a place to be discovered, thank you John.

With all my friendships and with soon,

Jean-Charles

Budapestman (82620) 2007-10-24 4:22

Hi John,
This is great, the POV is very spectacular and impressive. Colours are amazing, clarity is superb as usual. Magnificent view, indeed. Have a nice day
George

aloyho (6798) 2007-10-26 20:36

Hi John,
I was trying to visualize this scene without the railing in the foreground so that I can have an uninterrupted view of the beach and people below but on further considerations the railing helped to guide our eye flow around the scene and provided a good balance with the related hanging bridge beyond. Indeed an attractive place for an outing and maybe a bungy jump from the hanging bridge! A picturesque shot!!

Regards and a blessed weekend.

Angshu (56760) 2007-10-27 6:26

Dag John
Very interesting composition with the fence in the FG & the bridge almost seemingly repeating in texture. Between them, in the gap between the two rock towers you show us the beach which provides a fantastic sense of depth. the tiny people down there shows us the size of this place. Excellent shot!
Regards
Angshu

Hello John,
today I΄ve decided to look through your older pictures.This one is really beautiful.I must say,that this place doesn΄t look very"english".Nice weather and lovely beach looks more like it would be anywhere in south of Europe.I likethe perspective you΄ve used here.It provides us with excellent view of the beach and the suspension bridge above.Also colors are really beautiful captured.
Wish you a pleasant day

jcpix (14030) 2013-01-21 10:08

Hi John,

Smart composition here, I really like the lines created from the railing and bridge. The way you've constructed this arrangement gives some nice depth, as there are different "markers" as the image progresses. The colors throughout the scene flow so well, it's very soothing. The more I view this one, the more I like it...in fact, this may be my new favorite from your galleries. Job well done!

Cheers,

Jason

Zeer mooi schot. Goed gedaan scherpte en belichting.

mcmtanyel (58830) 2016-11-26 18:19

Hello John,
This is a lovely view. I like the view of the beach and the ocean through the two rocky crags. The tiny bridge on top, parallel to the fence in the foreground, is the crowning touch.

LuisGustavoLima (5184) 2017-07-19 12:32

Olα, John!

Bonita foto!
Enquadramento muito bom, com a praia (que tem um belo mar) entre as duas colinas. Interessante como a ponte acompanha a linha do horizonte. Boas cores, luz e nitidez!
Parabιns!

Pozdrav.
Interesantan i lep pogled, lepa ograda, most i priroda, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama, kontrastom, lep trenutak sa talasima i oblacima.
Lepa plaza za odmor sa lepim pogledom.
Zelim vam lepo popodne za odmor, sve najbolje.
Paja.

mkamionka (61306) 2020-10-19 5:14

Hi John,
I have seen a similar bridge in the Northern Ireland. On a bad weather day it is quite scary to cross it.
You have well captured it with lovely beach below.
What a great place! I really have to visit it someday!
