Saltwick Bay

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted June 30, 201173 views5 comments

I went to the much visited Saltwick Bay last night for my first sunset visit - bear in mind it doesn't get sunset that often being on the east coast of England...
There were a lot of photographers there, as I'd suspected, so I tried to wander off and find my own thing. The tide was lower than my previous experience and I was able to wander out to a rather lovely sea bed shelf, only exposed at very low tide.
Later on the sunset did amazing things to the sky but I think this may be my favourite for being a bit more understated and the clouds/sea symmetry. I will try to post the others in due course.
Thanks for any comments!

I really like this one Lizzie. The 50/50 split works for me here and those pastel colors look great. The water and sky compliment each other nicely. Well done.

I think you can blame Joe Cornish for the hordes of photographers out there :) I'm enjoying the understated pastel colours here. A lovely seascape.

Beautiful, subtle colors Lizzie. Love the texture of the water and sky and the framing with the rock shelf.

Thanks very much Scott, Kah and Eva. I will post some of the others in due course.
Kah - yes I think Joe started the trend - though it was a camera club outing that was responsible for most of the photographers there last night - in fact I had to clone two of them out of this image! ;-) It's a great location though and I can see why it's so popular.

Another terrific shot Lizzie, very nicely composed.
