ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This is a shot I took this summer at the Brownstone Day mark which is located in Kingswear, Devon, England.
This strange monument was built in 1864, this hollow, octagonal tower is made of limestone and rises to 80ft (24m) high on tall arched legs. It was built as a guide to mariners to the position of the harbour entrance. It is visible for many miles out to sea.

The shot was taken directly into the evening sunset, which I have intentionally blown to create strong contrasts and silhouettes. The final result has something of a sic-fi feel to it due to the space ship architecture of the building.

I was unsure of what category to put this in: Conceptual, Fine Art, Landscape or Architecture

AUTHOR
Hi, I’m Neil Burnell, a self taught photographer and graphic designer from South West England. I enjoy all types of photography but my main passion is in Concept and Landscape photography.

Concept

I like to be creative with my photo's and will often try to create stylised concept images with atmosphere.

Landscape

I'm lucky to live on the South West coast of England in the beautiful fishing town Brixham. There are so many wonderful landscape photograph opportunities near to home and I hope to share my images and experiences with you as I capture Seascape and Landscape images from this amazing part of the world.
