Kite flying on Old Hunstanton Beach
Waiting for the weather and tide
Multicoloured layered cliffs at Hunstanton, Norfolk, UK
The play of light in the sky and the humps of the the eroded sandstone boulders which were arranged in lines pointing out to sea, was wonderful. I made a couple of attempts to capture it, and this is the one I like best. The green of the seaweed was a great bonus. It really was that vivid. Even though it was accurate, I had to take the saturation down just a tad as it was looking unreal.
The picture was taken looking West from the beach at Hunstanton, where there are some wonderful layered and coloured cliffs. While setting up and taking this picture I knew there was a chance of the sun breaking through and lighting up the cliffs behind me. But after a seemingly interminable wait, we gave up. Sure enough later on the sun shone through but I wasn’t in a position to get the shot.

You can also see Bamburgh Castle on the horizon.
An attempt to get a picture of Lindisfarne Castle and use a wall to frame the castle and obscure an ugly lamp post on the quay.

Oil refinery at Grangemouth seen from Culross
It’s about time I posted a picture that didn’t include lots of green in it.

Dark sea
One of the very first photographs I took when I bought my first digital camera. Fawley Oil Refinery, Southampton Water, Hampshire, UK.
I guess I should be thankful for this picture, if I hadn’t managed to take a decent picture early on, I might not have become enthralled with photography again.
