Rocks Cape Cornwall

180mm x 140mm

Sea rock formations seems to have grasped my interest of late and these two are part of a group just to the west of the prominentary at Cape Cornwall and are meant to be viewed alongside the image of the headland to give them a sense of place.

The headland of Cape Cornwall is dominated by a mining chimney which adds emphasis to an iconic setting contrasting it against the wide vista of open sea.
