bigbob is the registered forum/gallery name of our featured photographer, Bob, on the DPNow Picture of the Day today.
Bob has posted many grand landscapes from around his home county of Kent, here in the UK. Bob shoots a lot of images on or around the kent coast and this particular shot is from the beach at Littlestone, near New Romney. The horizon is perfectly level, but practically everything else is at an angle, which makes the picture interesting, I like the milky sun-lit foreground, while the sky looks broody and threatening above. The result is a living beach and boat scene that rises above the postcard view cliché.
