The third picture didn't do a lot for me Nigel, not as fine as your first cliff scene. But this latest entry is very attractive. I like the foreground interest which you have rendered beautifully. As said above the splash of rich green seaweed is lovely.
Should it be square without the two rocks on the right as suggested by Swarf? I'm not sure. Certainly the water patterns bottom centre and bottom right are an attractive part of the image. I would be loathe to lose them.

There's pay car parking adjacent to The Sage, and Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art at Gateshead Quayside. There's quite a big car park further east on the Newcastle Quayside outside The Hub café and cycling centre and its free. But its a bit of a walk back to the main part of the quayside although its really handy for the Ouseburn area and Byker Wall.

Its a pair of sunglasses but with a nose hole support rather than legs which hook over your ears.
Or is it the expanding universe before it expanded, with intensely compacted matter congealed at the centre.

First the revised cliffs picture Nigel: #2 has slightly improved the colour of the sea but the revised sky contrast has resulted in more noise. On balance I prefer your first version.
The beach scene is gorgeous. Colour, compositional balance and above all sharp detail are first class. What's this Samyang 14rmm everyone is raving about?

An often overlooked fact (outside the North East that is) is that much of the English county of Northumberland and a little bit of Cumbria,lie north of Hadrian's Wall.

Tyne ripples



Whichever day we go we might be able to grab shots of panoramas of the River Tyne like this.

The mist portrays the fog of bewilderment which now seems to envelope the whole of the UK over where we go from here, particularly with regard to the West Lothian Question..

These are beautiful Carl. I particularly like #3 where there's a hint of a shaft of sunlight striking down from the clouds to the water. They all have glorious colour rendition.
