The photograph
"Gate to the Sun" portrays the lighthouse of Cabo de São Vicente, Cape St Vincent, on the high cliffs at the southwestern tip of Portugal, in the Algarve. It is a long exposure seascape, printed as a signed fine art print.
A band of orange light opens on the horizon under a heavy lid of grey clouds, like a door left ajar. Below, the Atlantic turns a deep teal and the exposure draws white trails of foam along the foot of the cliffs and around a lone sea stack. Long exposures are my way to slow the ocean down and keep only the shape of its movement.
