Story Behind This Shot

This photo was taken on a recent trip to London. I’d been staying with my friends Scott and Sam and having a blast in London town. But one day we decided it’d be awesome to get out into the countryside, so we rented a car and took a trip to Eastbourne. Eastbourne is a charming little town with a seaside pier. Just out of town is Beachy Head with these gigantic chalk cliffs. It’s hard to imagine a stretch of coastline more spectacular. It had been a grey morning but by this time the sun was just starting to make an appearance and it hung around for the rest of the day. It would have been nice to have a filter to cut down on the glare, but alas I didn’t, and so I had to soften the image a little in post-production. This is the result.

About Matt Edwards    

Hi there. I'm an Australian writer, photographer and scientist in the solar power industry. I like travelling, peace and quiet, loud music, fireworks, travelling, campfires, surfing, guitars, starry nights, snowboarding, theatre, watermelon, dogs, skateboards, astronomy, come-to-bed eyes, snow and sunsets. I dislike early mornings, angry people, loud trucks and buses, and the Australian Stock Exchange. After travelling almost non-stop for ten years, I've amassed a huge collection of travel tales… some strange, some tall, but all (allegedly) true. Click here to find out more, or see
