I was on the Isle of Arran a couple of weeks ago and during my adventures, I came across this coastal shot.

Personally, I think that the Isle of Eigg has the most photogenic beach in Scotland, but this little patch of coastal scenery on Arran has got me: look at the curves, tones and structure of that rock.... it looks like a big snake slithering into the water.

I think a good image is really all about simplification. Reducing, removing, isolating, curves, tones, textures - these are all the aspects that go into making landscapes with high impact.
