Title "Cornish Shipwreck" Beached in Cornwall"

Having such immense perspective, your focal point is first drawn to the fascinating shipwreck that has floundered beached on the shore in Cornwall, it has such severe damage with its mast at the bow which has broken off leaving a stump, the largest central mast is leaning over with most of the sails which have been washed away by the gale storm, also various snapped and ripped rigging that is flying about, the other mast at the stern also has sails missing. You can see the ships wheel at the back. To the right are rough crashing rolling choppy seas with many birds seagulls flying overhead close by the shore and further over are tall rocky cliffs, some with green grass vegetation on, the cliffs look really tough and fierce and they branch back into the distance.

In the lower foreground you can see various figures fisherman sailors who are walking carrying salvaging wreckage rigging from the ship, one figure has his hands around a barrel, there are also various figures on the ship and just below it who are trying to salvage the sails and other useful materials. Various ship cargo wreckage is all along the beach, to the lower left in the foreground is a longboat that is also wrecked on the rocks on the beach. Further over are 2 other ships in the background sailing along. Above with mainly heavily overcast black grey skies with a small spot of blue shining through the gloom.
