Now that I’m finally feeling better I managed to get an hour out in the cool afternoon sun. I decided to try and capture images of Fremington Quay. I had my work cut out as it was very bright and hazy but I was just grateful to be finally out and about. I tried to capture the character of the bank by including the reeds and grass that were capturing the light rather than the boat be the whole scene. I quite like the result as to me, its pleasing and quite subtle.

I’m alive! I have been suffering from swine flu for several weeks so the camera had to take a back seat. The kids had it before I did, their school had 150 kids off with it in one week. I still can’t speak properly but am feeling much better, so thought I better actually try to post a photo today.

The buildings and beach huts at Westward Ho! glare in the light of the setting sun.

This is another scene from Instow. I rarely don’t find something to shoot at instow as its a very dynamic location.

A path runs across Braunton Burrows as the grass glows in the low winter sun. In the distance you can see snow on the hills tops.

As the sunset dropped behind the hill that holds Clovelly I liked the tranquil scene before me. I liked the high contrasting harbour wall still basking in the golden light set against the boats being grabbed by the shade.

I haven’t had much time with the camera in the last week or so, between work, family and a broken computer to contend with so I’m looking through my old images seeing what grabs my eye to process. This is Woolacombe beach. Beach huts conjure a very British seaside vibe in my head but I’m sure they are in other countries too.
