Hello 😀,

Something I captured in my last coast outing, this is behind London bridge and I liked the shark or whale mouth shaped hollow so I went in there with my camera. I liked the image in B&W as i find it more "raw and natural" as well as more impact, B&W also plays along nicely with a bright midday sun, good contrast for punchier b&w, but thats my view.. Hope you like it..

Kaboom... Great shot Chavezshutter, I love the tones and think the B&W choice was the right one. The movement in the waves is fantastic and their white against the dark border of the cave works really well like a natural vignette. The sharpness and detail of the rocks throughout is great and contrasts well with the movement of the water.
The grey sky could maybe be darkened ever so slightly, but its not really necessary and is just me looking for something...
The image has great impact, very nicely done.

Very nice... I like the symmetry , seems like a rhomboidal window into the sea....and the vapour like water. And I like BW!
