Today, our featured photographer on the DPNow Picture of the Day is registered on the DPNow forum and galleries as cbougzy.
At a first glance, this picture is obviously an attractive sunset scene. But the detail of the figures at the base of the cliff and, if you look carefully, near the top - too, adds that little extra to make the picture, overall, more than yet another sunset. Let's hear from the photographer:
"This is one of my favourite photos as I had only purchased my first camera (a Nikon D40) a couple of weeks before, and was still learning my way around it. It was taken at Port Soif, on the west coast of Guernsey, Channel Islands. I have always liked taking sunset photos, but this was a good opportunity to get something a bit different as my friends were going climbing that evening."
It all sounds, and looks, idyllic.
