Porth Nanven Sunset over Brissions, Cot Valley, Cornwall

Porth Nanven

Several visits to this isolated Cornish cove had resulted in nothing special, but I had envisaged a shot in my mind, having seen the potential of a sunset behind the Brissons.

Some research, and a year long wait coincided with a stunning sunset as a storm front blew in.

Often the worst weather can offer the best light and on this night that held true. The quality light in Cornwall is so unpredictable, it changes so rapidly, and when a weather fronts blow in off the Atlantic, it can really deliver some amazing displays of tone, mood and colour.
