Dorset Landscape Photography : Sunset inside the Door
20th March 2011
Dorset Landscape Photography
Sunset at Durdle Door
Its the time of year when the sun sets and shines its light inside the arch over at Durdle Door. It only happens twice a year and lasts for about 10 days each time.
The skies were clear and it looked like the sun would light up the inside of the Door really well, but in the last 10 minutes, the sun dropped behind a bank of clouds. Before it fdropped however, it managed to light up the arch for a short while, before fading away.
They were only a few people out tonight, which was surprising, as it had been a lovely afternoon, clearing to blue skies and relatively warm, but there were only 2 photographers on the beach tonight.
As it set behind the clouds, it did manage to colour the skies for a few minutes, creating a peaceful sunset, with dusky pinks across the sky.
