Description

On this photography day, I chose Anixa Beach for its distinctive rock formations, offering strong potential for new compositions.

Upon arrival, the location confirmed its promise, with tides ideal for long exposure work. The sky was lightly overcast, with a subtle dramatic mood and occasional breaks of light, creating a humid and atmospheric setting.

The beach is defined by the Anixa rock, located offshore and giving the place its name. I had also planned to photograph it, but only brought a wide-angle lens, which made a compelling composition difficult — a drone or telephoto lens would have been necessary.

The day ended with an unexpected encounter: on my way back to the car park, I came across a fox standing perfectly still, watching me. A brief moment of silent tension followed as I slowly reached for my phone without startling it, while it assessed the potential risk of my presence.

Although I only managed a few successful images, it was a deeply rewarding day with a memorable ending.
