cloudyish

29th September 2023, Warkworth, 9am

A bit cloudy (but mostly not!) 



Tuesday 26 September 2023

after hours

 26th September 2023, Bamburgh, 5pm

Such a beautiful afternoon that I headed down to the beach for a cup of coffee and a golden hour wander around as the sun sank to the horizon.

Not a bad place to find myself at 5pm on a Tuesday...







Monday 25 September 2023

not early enough

 25th September 2023, Simonside, 8am

Too late for sunrise but plenty of lovely early light.








Thursday 21 September 2023

changing days

 21st September 2023, Warkworth, 9am

A beautiful bright and breezy day on the sun-kissed beach.

It's one day of woolly hats, one day of kagouls and one day of shorts and shades just now...







no wind to see

 20th September 2023, Bamburgh Castle

Changeable weather during the day at the castle and very windy.  The big skies never short of interest





Monday 18 September 2023

what of the day

 18th September 23, Buston, 9am

Still some colour in the eastern sky


18th September 23, Warkworth, 5pm

Waves and ferns summed up my wander along the beach at high tide today.





two different days

 14th Sept. 23, Bamburgh, 5pm

A quick stroll up the beach after work under beautiful light.



17th Sept. 23, Simonside, 8am

Another misty wander up Simonside with the furry family.








Sunday 10 September 2023

up in time

 10th September 2023, Embleton Bay, 6am

It's been a while since I saw a sunrise from the beach. Up at 5:30 for a 6:29 sunrise and I found myself by the boats in Newton Haven as the sun came over the horizon. Right place, right time, a bit of luck, a bit of planning...








Saturday 9 September 2023

proper summer

 9th September 2023, Bamburgh, 2pm

A very hot day

Bamburgh was like a proper summer beach.



fretting

 8th September 2023, Buston, 8am


My path festooned 

With morning jewels of heavy dew 

By the time I reach the sand 

I’m as wet as if I’d waded 

Into the waves





The sea fret rolls in during warm weather and can spoil the summer sunshine for the casual sun-bather. The myriad of fine droplets can give their own beauty to the micro-landscapes for the photographer to find (even for spider-phobic photographers!)



8th September 2023, Bamburgh, 4pm

The sea fret swirls around the smiley lighthouse and stag rock.  Holy Island nowhere to be seen.



by yon shady banks

 2nd September 2023, Felton, 3pm

Seeking cooler shade by the river Coquet


5th September 2023, Alnmouth, 9am 

A last chance for the fresh water to leave its mark before being lost in the ocean.



Friday 1 September 2023

mist mountain hop

 1st September 2023, Simonside, 7am

An early trip up Simonside on a misty morning.





lots of sea

 31st August 2023, Bamburgh, 10am

On the beach for a photo session.  It was actually beautifully warm and sunny but for this one ominous cloud which hung about behind the castle for a while.


31st August 23, Buston, 4pm

High tide so not much beach.




passing by

 28th August 2023, Embleton Bay, 7pm

A wander along the bay before the folk session at Ship Inn...


30th August 2023, Bamburgh Castle, 8:30am

I arrived at work and showers were passing dramatically out over the sea.
