I’ve been scouting out new locations to shoot and I think this beach will be revisited especially when it’s a low tide to explore the sea stack. This was one of the last shots I was able to take before Simon would have filed for divorce 
I actually desaturated this photograph a bit because the colors were so intense they didn’t look real.
