Challenge: Free Study 2007-10 (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM
Location: Lindisfarne, Northumberland
Date: Oct 21, 2007
Aperture: f22
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1.3 seconds
Date Uploaded: Oct 21, 2007

 Holy Island (Lindisfarne) off the Northumberland Coast. A coble is a small fishing boat which I used as foreground, with the castle and sunrise in the distance.

I had to walk out into the mud to take this shot, when I tried to get out the mud sucked the feet off the legs of the tripod and almost had my boots too.

Had to clone out another photographer who was stood on the end of the jetty with his tripod. Bloody photographers get everywhere ;-)

This image shows up in Firefox, but not in Safari, for me. This might be my problem, rather than yours. Anyway, I've raised the vote to "8" on this excellent image.
