Uttershill Castle

Uttershill Castle dates back to the 16th Century now of course a ruin but ideal for winter images at dawn!

The sea

Seeing an image of a exotic balmy sea (hi Lu!) inspired a trip to the beach! First I had a problem getting out of the car.  Winds up to 50 mph meant it was a great struggle with the car door - once outside the wind and rain blew straight at the wandering photographer plastering the lens.... hmmm a new technique is required - back to the wind, clean lens, swing round rapidly and shoot one image blind before more rain on the lens... and here it is!

Early morning light


After the glorious but rushed sunrise I quickly snapped these on the way to work! Some days I wonder how I make it to work when the light is so good :-)

On the step

I nearly missed it this morning... sunrise... just caught this from the steps to the house!
