The sun was bright high in the morning sky but between the sun and the horizon was a line of dark cloud from yesterday's rain heading away over the sea.
The latest in my current obsession of little ships from things found on the beach.

middle of the day
15th August 2018, Embleton Bay, 10:30am
It's not always easy to find photographs in the middle of the day.
The sun is high in the sky rather than rising from the sea and the beach is a recreational area rather than a place of peace and nature.
Still that is the challenge of photography and today's PhotoWalk was with a nice group (including some younger photographers which is always good) and after talking about photography for an hour or so the photographs start to appear even if the light is more blue than golden.

Later and time is my own so I played with some stones and seaglass while Daisy watched the view.
Then we noticed the coming rain clouds and headed for home as the sun was swallowed up.

rainy day blues
13th August 2018, Dunstanburgh, 8am
At my show last Thursday someone asked me if I could find photographs in the landscape when it’s grey and wet and uninspiring? (Something they struggled with). Well I like a challenge and today has suitable weather... There’s always something if you take the time to see.

A very interesting morning. I met this lovely couple from Portland, Oregon cycling up the East coast of Britain on their awesome semi-recumbent tandem. We rode along chatting for a while and everything in the world was just fine.

on the road

Though dawn chased the shadows from the land
They return in the heat of the day
Will I find somewhere shady to stand
Or let in the sunlight to play?

It's really too hot to run by mid-morning just now so I took the bike and a flask with my morning coffee and headed 12Km down Route 1 to Howick Bay. Past ripening wheat and barley and along quiet roads and farm tracks to sit on the rocks and watch the sea for a while.

Busy Beach
8th August 2018, Embleton Bay, 10am
A very enjoyable PhotoWalk with an enthusiastic couple today. The beach was quite busy and normally my photos show it empty so these shots are a bit different.

After Dinner

It's very rare for us to venture out after tea. We should do it more often.
