Wheal Coates Steel Blue
I have photographed Wheal Coates mine numerous times, and on this occasion, wanted to capture the broad expanse of the coastline that the mine sits on. I travelled out onto the cliffs overlooking Porth Beach with a view of the engine house towers jutting out of the landscape. It was a summer’s evening and the sun was just beginning to fade, turning the sky a very light blue.
The sea was calm and the evening light was giving the waters a steely blue effect that contrast wonderfully with the shadowy coastline and undulating hills. The clarity of the landscape sitting stark against the pale blue seas and skies makes this a really effective shot for showing the depth of the Cornish coast.
