The Temple on the cliff edge

It's challenging (for me, anyway) to get a good shot of Mussenden Temple from Downhill Beach.  If I walk down the beach and get closer to the Temple then it's just a big black blob against the sky.  Maybe I don't go at the right time of day.  I've photographed it manys-a-time from up top - like here, which you might recall.  Anyway, this is about the best I have managed from the beach recently:

The Temple is as near as damn it right on the cliff edge - more so than it looks in this shot.  A few years back the National Trust drilled a number large steel bolts into the cliff in order, I guess, to underpin the foundations.
