Sunrise at the Seven Sisters

Another early start yesterday (5am) to get to the Cuckmere for a sunrise shoot I've been wanting to try for a while. My first attempt a few weeks ago went wrong as I took a wrong turn and couldn't find the path I needed to get me to the cottages.

This trip was nearly a waste as despite connecting and switching on my battery charger the night before, for some reason the battery hadn't charged and I only had about 40 shots left before I expected the camera to die. I switched to MF and avoided too much histogram reviewing to presurve what power I did have. Fortunately the skies performed and I got a few angles I'm pleased with. It was a bit misty so the contast in the cliffs is a bit low but now I know the location works I'll be visiting again with a fully charged battery!

love it, the interaction between the sky and the cliffs works well and the muted surrounding colour sets it off!

Beautiful shot!

Images like this always give me the grass is greener on the other side syndrome.

Beautiful!

Stunning! Well done.

Thanks guys.

Here's another angle from the same trip.

The second image does it for me, I couldn't find anything to anchor the image in the first, in the second the light buildings hold it all together very well, although a tad central for my eyes.
It may be worth playing around with crops to pull the buildings off-centre?
