early best?

A quick dogwalk before a training day. It's worth getting up early for the peace and solitude of an empty beach.

A couple of hours later and time to be sociable.
On a sunny stroll up the beach with two Northumberland Photo Training clients I met the National Trust wardens and volunteers clearing non-native and invasive plants from the dunes. You could spend all day photographing flowers around here at this time of year including these beautiful "Bloody Cranesbill" and (some variety of) dandelion. These flowers belong here along with hundreds of other beautiful wild flowers. Nature does it best.

balance

Many visitors seem to enjoy relaxing by creating balanced piles of stones. They are beautiful creations.
There was something different about this set though...

When I get the camera out, Daisy walks towards me to stop me taking a photo. Sometimes it makes for a better photo though.

A chilly June day
6th June 2018, Embleton Bay, 7:30am
A very cold N wind blew down the beach and cold grey waves crashed onto the shore.
This is a bleak, magnificent place where you can feel the weather, feel nature all around you and feel alive. It's often chilly in the wind on the beach even on an otherwise warm day. Anyone visiting this place has to take it as they find it. No point complaining.

Back to just me and Daisy again. It was a beautiful walk in bright sunshine with wildflowers all around. Still a chilly wind kept the afternoon cool.

outwardly calm

Even at 6:30 there were a few dog walkers about so Daisy and Bess were confined to the lead for a while. The ensuing tangles and bickering isn't very conducive to a relaxing walk but eventually we found an empty stretch of beach and they raced off to disturb the calm sea with some happy splashing about.
