This
shot was taken on the same morning as the mussel beds
photographs above. It was only while going through the files again that I came across the shot and thought it was worth working up. I'm glad I did it's proved to be a well liked image and is now on show at the big blue sky Wells-next-the-sea |

I was
making a determined effort to go after panoramic shots; an early morning start and a race along the coast to capture the terrific quality of the light meant the first stop was Wells, a much photographed place. This was just a test shot; but nothing else I did that day was this good. |

I'm
not a great fan of extreme wide angles, but this shot surprised me, in any case there was no choice. I hadn't checked the tide tables, so to see the tide this far out was a bit of a shock, and those reflections were just too good to miss. A wide angle was the only choice available to me with the kit I was carrying. So a wide angle it is. |

This
shot was taken last winter, when a hard frost was forcast. I turned up at How Hill very early in the morning, parked the car and went down to the river. This is the what I saw. All that was required was that I put up the tripod and take the shot. Sometimes it's just a case of being there. If you look closely you can see the reed cutters sythe on the bundles of reeds on the right. |

Again
another hard frost. I'd tried this view point a number of times before, not with any success. The foreground always looked too confusing to make the composition work, This mornings hard frost solved the problem, giving the foreground a unity of tone and colour. |

This
was a morning were the mist lasted until 10am, even so I was hard pushed to get to this spot before it all cleared. There were good shots to be had on the way out and back from this location. But the best bit was simply being out there when no one else was around. |

Just
in case you were thinking this chap has done a lot of windmills Here's Cromer pier on a misty morning. Others call it a Sea Frett, but if you're from Hull it's a Sea Rawk. |
