Occasionally the clouds clear away and the UK does get some blue skies. Hasn’t happened much this summer though! I was immediately drawn to the band of pink that fades to blue just across the horizon but for lack of any foreground interest (being a rather open and pebbled beach) I settled for the dynamic approach and shot the movement of the water and thus create some foreground for me. With a moderately high depth of field I was able to strike a nice balance and capture the movement of the water around the stationary rocks, creating white trails as it receded back into the surf. This was taken down on the Dorset coastline not far from Lyme Regis and proves once in a while a nice evenings do roll by…I’m just hoping for a little more consistency in the weather to make photographic trips that bit more reliable rather than merely ‘trips’! I’ve also just revised, and in the process of updating, my wedding package(s) to keep it all simple, I’m hoping to have it up in place in the next week or so.

  1. Love this image. Movement of the water retreating on the beach with the lead in to the wave to the wonderful pinks and blues in the sky. You were lucky to get a day like this, it’s been raining here for two months solidly.
