Coliemore Harbour Dalkey Black And White Photo

“Stone sleeps, the eye rests, the tower beckons, sky calls.”

– SJ Mannion

 

A beautiful Black And White Photo of the quaint Coliemore Harbour Dalkey. Dalkey island sits in the background. The photo of the Harbour breaks the scene down into simple forms. I wanted to achieve rich blacks in the sky, so I waited for a bright day with a nice blue sky. I started shooting in the early afternoon to maximise the contrast. The triangulation of the piers and wall in the foreground form an apex in front of the tower on the island so the eye is drawn to it.
