Simmons

London 03/25

I was actually at a workshop when I saw this scene. Had to slip away from the group for a moment to get the shot. Shortly after, she was gone. So again, #righttimerightplace

The next weekend Storm Darragh hit. I made sure I was in the right location at high tide.

A photo of a lighthouse as a huge waves hits the pier on which it stands. The crashing wave obscures the lower parts of the lighthouse as the strong wind blows the spray.

My next sunrise trip was a week later, the forecast wasn't ideal but I decided to risk an early morning at Bamburgh.

The first of the three is at the start of the blue hour, whilst the one with the dog is just before the sun was due to rise.

My favourite of these three being the dog walker shot.

A blue hour photo of a castle standing next to a beach. The sand on the beach is wet from the occasional wave that manages to reach quite a long way in land as the sand is so flat. The sun is rising behind the castle which is silhouetted against the colourful sky. The cloud which is being lit up by the sun is bright red and it resembles a fire with smoke.

The next Wednesday after my trip to Buttermere I made the effort to get up for sunrise at Steetley Pier in Hartlepool.

This trip generated a very colourful sunrise shot and two of my all time favourites, the pier remnants shots.

A photo of a old wooden industrial pier during the sunrise blue hour. The sky is a kaleidoscope of orange, pink, blue, red and orange above the pier. The sky is partially reflected in a pool of sea water on the beach.

Whilst I was taking this my feet were slowly sinking in the sand which meant ice cold water was rushing into my walking boots.

A long exposure photo of remnants of a pier that are standing upright as waves lap around them. The sun can be seen rising to the right of the frame casting a golden light on the scene as waves break in the foreground.

Back in November I made the decision to make much more effort to get the right conditions when out taking photos. I'd been a bit lazy before this. Whether that would mean more early mornings to catch a sunrise or timing a visit for the tide or weather.

This is a thread for the photos I captured as a result of that extra effort.

First up is my trip to Buttermere on a calm morning to catch the sun as it first drops into the valley.
