This is a famous location for finding fossils on the Dorset coast. Sadly something went wrong and the image is not well-focused. If that was not enough, the white balance was set to incandescent light. I attempted to make the resulting blue image warmer but the colours are quite wrong. The sun was setting and all the rocks should have gold/rust colour.

The dark "soil" above the beach on the left is some sort of soft black rock. Erosion from the sea has cause a huge landslip here.
