Twilight

It had been a beautiful autumn day, warm and cloudless. I'd run errands for most of it, nothing exciting, just grocery shopping, banking and a trip to the hardware store with some sushi in the middle for lunch. I'd decided to take a walk on the beach and, as so often happens, I took my camera in the hope that I'd find some colour in the sunset or, at the very least, something interesting to photograph. The photos in this post are the result.

The image directly above was one of the last I captured. I'd moved off the beach, walking on the coastal path, and saw this fellow with a way better set up than I have and decided to see if I could get a shot of him silhouetted against the sky. Unfortunately, to get the best angle on him I'd have had to wander into the dunes which isn't permitted as they're trying to regenerate coastal plants to combat erosion so this image is as good as it was going to get. It delivers the message though I guess. Below are some of the other shots.

The tide was quite high and the beach was covered in piles of seaweed which is a little unusual so I didn't end up taking any shots from the sand at all; it was still late afternoon anyway so there wasn't a lot of colour in the sky initially.

I walked for over ninety minutes then wandered up onto the jetty (pier) to see if I could capture something worth sharing; the results are below. Please note, two of them are a little similar although I liked the light and shadow in both so decided to include them despite each being a shot of the same thing.

I had a nice walk and was pleased with the photo results I got in the early-twilight. I ended up with fifty nine images and have only selected a few for this post. I'll share some of the others as time goes by. Thanks for taking a scroll through the images and, as always, if you have any comments don't hesitate to drop them into the comment section below.
