East of Eden

Well perhaps not the Eden, but Ballintoy Harbour comes a pretty close second I reckon.  Anyway, looking East from Ballintoy gave you a scene like this if you were lucky enough to be there last Wednesday evening about 9pm:

East from Ballintoy one evening in May 2019

It wasn't quite as bleak as it looks here but the light was fading fast when I took this shot.  From a wee Olympus OM camera with a 50mm Zuiko lens on it.  You can tell it was a slowish shutter speed as there's a bit of blur on the lone seagull whirling about.  A fair crop on the negative too, hence the rather nice grain on the Adox paper.

    It's a pleasing grain though.

    A lovely print for sure, with some nice light conditions and that lonely seagull to really make the final touch to it. It adds to your growing stack of great prints from your coastline, Michael. You should find somewhere to hang them for people to see! :)

      Thanks Roy - appreciated. I must indeed try to get something coherent put together. I keep saying this and then I don't do anything about it. One day, one day...
