London Bridge Lookout

London Bridge Lookout perches on the cliff edge of the Mornington Peninsula, giving you a dramatic bird's-eye view of a striking double-arched limestone formation carved by the Southern Ocean. The natural rock arches frame beautifully against the turquoise water below, and the elevated vantage point lets you compose wide shots that show the full scale of the structure in relation to the bay. A telephoto lens helps compress the arches against the sea, while a wide angle works well for capturing the cliff context and horizon. Shoot at sunrise or on overcast days when soft, even light brings out the colour in the rock without harsh shadows. Low tide is the best time to visit as it reveals the sandy floor inside the arches and reduces the risk of wave surge. The lookout is accessible via a short walk from the car park, so getting here early gives you the space to shoot undisturbed. (Portsea, Victoria, Australia)
