Another shot taken on Llandwyn Island (it's not really an island, as access is available except at the highest of tides), this time showing the memorial cross with the watchtower in the background.
On the original shot the sky was messy, with just a few random clouds in awkward places. This image has a sky imported from another shot, taken in the same place but earlier in the day. The cloud pattern is much more interesting, with a shape and sweep that adds to the overall composition.
I very rarely import skies into images, (far too much work!) but felt that this scene absolutely needed a complimentary sky to lead the eye from foreground to background.
