About:

Dorchester, Dorset, United Kingdom
Photography is more of a passion than a hobby for me these days, and love the excitement that you may just witness something special during a dawn session and capture it for others to see. I specialise in seascapes of our beautiful Dorset coastline and scenic views generally across the county. My work sells at local craft fairs and the feedback I get from people purchasing or just browsing inspires me to stay within my local area, as local people seem to prefer local views. My images are also popular with those who have lived in the county but moved away or know relatives that have moved away and want memories of local landmarks. Thank you to everyone who has viewed this blog and to those who have purchased images and I hope you continue to enjoy. Please also visit my main website at www.mydigitaleye.adsl24.co.uk to view all the images I have available. If you have any questions then feel free to email me at ian.mydigitaleye@gmail.com.

Sunset across Durdle Door Bay, Dorset.
























 A strong sea mist had drifted in by the time I reached Durdle Door, and a few photographers were heading back home telling me "there's nothing to see but mist today". I then sprinted to the beach to set up in time for the sun going down, as the potential for something special happening in the mist was too much to ignore. The scene in these conditions could almost be from the other side of the world rather than Dorset. This was the first frame I fired after quickly setting up and the next frames then lost the beautiful glow of the sun as it seemed to be quickly extinguished by the bank of mist closing in. The rocks in the bay all have names, starting with 'The Bull' in the foreground, then 'The Blind Cow', 'The Cow' and finally 'The Calf'.
