Tadpole Cove, a photo from South Australia, Ouest

Photographer's Note

What's in a name? In the Cape Gantheaume area of Kangaroo Island is a pretty little cove by the name of Tadpole Cove. I suspect the name didn't come from frogs but from the shape of this tiny island in the cove. It does resemble a tadpole with its tail pointing back towards you.
The area has beautifully clear water with lots of seaweed and interesting things on the beaches.
If you ever go there don't expect crowds - we didn't see another person in the couple of hours we were in the area.

Hi Ian

My kinda place with no condominiums and crowds of tourists! Good seascape, & I can see the tadpole shape of the island & why it was thus named. Good colour, sharpness & framing. The orange contrasts well against the blue. I would add about 5% to 10% yellow if you didn't use a skylight filter. Tfs!

Hi Ian

What an unusual land formation, thoroughly deserving of the name. The rocks are stunning, a little like those in the Bay of Fires! Excellent POV, crystal clear image and wonderful chromatic rendering. There's a slight inclination of the horizon, but easy fixed in PS.

Thanks for sharing, have a great day
