Durdle Door, Dorset

Holidayfeeling!

Hi Lothar,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
This was my second holiday this summer.. I am still processing the pictures from the first one in Germany!
Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter

Peter, at first glance, I see a massive dinosaur taking a drink :)) Does anyone else see that? :)
What a fantastic place, seems private for the sunbathers there. or maybe sit back under the "dinosaur 's belly" over there in the shade. :)) you had a great POV Peter, well captured,,, a touch of purple in the corner and a massive blue sea!! Best wishes, Sarah

Hi Sarah ,
Thank you for visiting!
I am pleased you found it interesting, and such an imaginative analogy too.
The way down to the beach is by a path and steps sort of hidden behind the purple flowers. This was an evening shot. In the morning the beach is in the shade, and during the day the shadow of the dinosaur gets gradually smaller and smaller, until the whole beach enjoys the afternoon sun!
Of course the purple flowers are no accident...!

Best Wishes, and a Good Weekend,
Peter

No. Having moved from the next photo I saw a theme of arch bridges.

We went there last year, but didn't have such a beautiful sky ... : www.ipernity.com/doc/erhard.bernstein/46840348

Hi Erhard,

Thank you for such kind words. We must have been in about the same place to take the picture, but sadly the sun was not shining on you that day.
In fact I had walked here in the morning, and been somewhat disappointed with the pictures because the light was not so good, so when the sun came out in the evening I walked back again.
Best Wishes

The dragon that drinks from the sea Peter. What a very green pov you have found, we have a low level image hanging on a wall in our house. I was a child when I last saw this for real.
Thanks for the memory jogger ~ Enjoy your Sunday ~~~ Nick

Hi Nick

Thank you for your visit and thoughts. I did go down onto the beach, and have some pictures from there too, but I reckoned this one to be nicer.
I guess if you live close by, you could go here on a clear winter morning and catch the sunrise through the arch.. Why not give it a go Nick?

Best Wishes
Peter

HAHAHA YEP its a Dragon, and not a dinosaur ( I think) my friend NICK clarified that for us didn't he? :):))))) Sarah thanks Nick ... :)

Hi Sarah

Thank you so much for your second visit.. Dragon or dinosaur? I suppose, as we say to our little children, it is whatever you want it to be!!
As long as the picture looks nice!!

Best Wishes
Peter

I AGREE ! :)))

Superbe
Bon dimanche

A beautiful photo of this classic!

Hi Gudrun ,
Thank you for visiting!
I'm happy that you had a good look!!
I had been there that morning, but I was not happy with the results (bad light), so I made a deliberate effort to come back in the evening when the sun had moved round, and the clouds gone. Erhard has a picture from almost the same place.. see above.
Best Wishes,
Peter

A lovely shot indeed Peter and great detail full size .. saved in fav's with a YS by me also

Best wishes .... Steve

Hi Steve ,
Your visit is most welcome. Thank you.

On the grounds that I have never been here before, and maybe never will again on such a sunny day, I did take a lot of photos. I am pleased you found it interesting.

Best Wishes,
Peter

Hi Peter,

I never tire of seeing Durdle Door and the rest of the amazing Jurassic coast of Dorset and east Devon. The blues of the sea and sky are beautiful as is your lovely perspective and framing...nice flowers too :)

Best regards, Rosa.

Hi Rosa,

Thank you so much. I am really honoured by your wonderful words!
It is an amazing place, and I am really envious of you folks who can go there as and when you please. So many photographic opportunities!

Best Wishes
Peter

Always good to see this!
Best wishes,
Andy

Hi Andy ,
Thank you very much!
I am so happy that you like the scene. Not quite Cornwall.... but close!
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HFF, and a Good Weekend,
Peter

If I lived near here, I's visit almost every day. Stunning colours and a lovely beach.
P.S. Contrary to Sarah and Nick, I think the Loch Ness monster is here on holiday. ;-)

Hi Amelia,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
Glad you like it, and of course Dragon, Monster, Brontosaurus, or whatever large creature you imagine it to be!
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HFF, and a Good Week,
Peter

Well now, there IS another possibility isn't there , Loch Ness monster may be visiting:))
