Face Off
This was taken along one of the beaches of Western Australia as my dad and I headed north of Perth (towards the Pinnacles Desert) during our trip there in November 2003. The face-like shape of the rock was already interesting on its own right. Little did we realise that the “hair” was home to a nest of seagulls! I caught this shot of one of the gulls “facing-off” with the rock, a big print of which now hangs decorating the wall in my bedroom 🙂
Update 25 Sep 2007: This picture has been entered in the latest Photo Friday Challenge titled “The Beach”. Please vote for me if you like this shot 🙂
wow. The rock face seems to be pouting.
OT: do you give classes for/mentor amateur photographers? 🙂
Thanks for sharing this Eng Loy. I didn’t get to stop on the way to the pinnacles so I had no idea what I was missing.
Beautiful composition.
This is rather magnificent. The composition of the photo elements are actually speaking to me, though i doubt i fully understand their language. Great one!
Thanks guys 🙂
ashwin: haha… I haven’t found the time to do so, although it would be interesting to do so. Something I could perhaps consider when I’m done with my exams 🙂
There are so many nice aspects to this photo – the colors, the lighting, the pleasing arrangement of shape and form.
The composition’s really good on this one. Not to mention the subject is really interesting!
