Really lovely set of images.. Enjoyed them...

Loved all 3 sets, top shooting.

Well done, a good documentary series of the NY coast.

an excellent series of shots. they really show of the area. good shooting

First and last for me. The first would have made Turner proud with that sky.

Another really good set.

Best regards

I haven't been to Whitby for years; I want to go! Great set - even those where the weather is gloomy.

I agree with the comments above - well done!

Cheers.

I hadn't been to Saltwick Bay before even though I live around 20 miles away however your shots inspired me to take a visit this afternoon. The tide was just starting to go out so I need to go back again, none the less I ended up with quite a few shots this being my favourite:


Thanks for the heads up and inspiration.

Very nice John... enjoyed this series of 3... particularly like 7 of this group... good taste and feel of the area...

That shark must be huge.

Thanks to all who have commented - it's always interesting and often stimulating to read what others think.

JAK, Saltwick Bay is all in the timing of the visit, isn't it? I went twice during our stay up there: the first time I arrived as the tide was coming in on a dull day so left disappointed - no way was I going to get stuck on the rocks and cut off by the tide! I timed my second visit to coincide with the low tide time, which gave me plenty of time to potter around, but it was about 8am and little sign of sun or water. You seem to have timed it better - I'm pleased at least that my efforts prompted you to go there, even if the main attraction of the wreck of the Admiral von Tromp was inaccessible! Another visit is definitely called for!

Absolutely right. I need to check the tide tables. It might be good for an early visit with the sun rising. I've passed the turn off to there dozens of times, just didn't know what was down that short track!

This looks a cracking location! Seems to have plenty to shoot. Particularly like the seascape images
