Simmering

The sea at Clevelys was reasonably quiet today compared with the last few days.
A chilly wind & the waves seemed to be increasing in height so I made a quick departure.
I went to the cinema to watch The Hobbit:The Desolation of Smaug.
We went to see the first part while we were in NZ last Christmas after we had been round the Hobbit village so I didn't want to miss the next episode. I must say it was a very thrilling film & I enjoyed it immensely.

It started at 12.30pm so I took some sandwiches & ate them on the back row...quite cosy really. I like going to the pictures in the afternoon & certainly don't mind going on my own...my film going friend was busy today
There were four of us in the cinema this afternoon.....there can't be much profit in that!!

Three good things:
1. I had the sense to make a hotpot with pastry top before I went so tea in the oven when I got home.
2. A replacement heater in the office so I am warm again.
3. A physic moment with Lesley in the night re travel bags.
Like your low pov and lovely clouds and contrasty layers. The hobbit sounds fun

Fav photo Pat beautiful scene
January 9th, 2014  
The Hobbit sounds good, great capture.

Like the horizontals and the verticals, pov and the detail - I like it! We saw the first part of The Hobbit and I feel like going to the second now.

It does look quite lively and churned up. Aah the luxury of an afternoon trip to the flicks. Sounds great.

@quietpurplehaze You must go Hazel before it finishes...it was much brisker than the first one with not as much meandering about. I was on the edge of my seat. I thought I wouldn't be able to remember it but it does come back to you.

@padlock @gerry Thank you so much for the fave you guys...much appreciated!
January 9th, 2014  
@happypat your very welcome Pat
January 9th, 2014  
Great pov and lovely shot..
January 9th, 2014  
A simply splendid image of sea and sky, Pat. Beautiful colors and lines.
It sounds as though you had yourself a fine time on the back row of the theater...kind of cool to have the place practically to yourself. The previews I've seen of The Hobbit/Smaug look wonderful.

Jo
I think the PoV and composition are lovely in this shot. It sounds as if you had a perfect afternoon, I haven't been to the cinema in years and hardly ever during the day, I think I might be missing out, there is a movie called 'The railway man' that I'd quite like to see, perhaps on the next rainy day I might treat myself?
January 9th, 2014  
Pat, you captured an awesome view from where you were
January 9th, 2014  
Love the texture and the lines Mum, fantastic photo, FAV x
January 9th, 2014  
You've captured the water so well! I love your POV!
January 9th, 2014  
Great pov and capture of the incoming waves. Good shot Pat
January 9th, 2014  
@jo13 I have just started the book Jo & we are definitely going to see that next week I think it's out tomorrow.
January 9th, 2014  
@mrsfeet Thanks Cathy!
January 9th, 2014  
Great pov and wonderful stretch of sea to those clouds. We have seen first hobbit and you have just reminded me that part 2 on at cinema. Nothing like these films on the big screen.
January 9th, 2014  
Wonderful shot and pov Super capture of the sky and the incoming waves Glad you enjoyed the Hobbit film I have not been to the cinema for years !
January 9th, 2014  
I've heard it's very good even though it still sounds too geeky to me! Lovely photo - some of the Lancashire coastline pics I've seen recently have been crazy!
January 9th, 2014  
Totally stunning Pat and a fav
January 9th, 2014  
This is a lovely shot....heard there has been huge wave action across the seas!!!
Oh I am a movie buff too..and don't mind going on my own...but I do have a movie buddy also. Saw this film and enjoyed it also, but kind of liked the first one better. I think there was a bit more emphasis on characters in that one..enjoyable none the less. A fav for the capture BTW!

I had to look up to see where Clevelys is. A funny name when you are used to the word, Cleverlys. This is a super photo with the dark wharf and the perspective taking up a third of the shot! Well composed!
January 10th, 2014  
Absolutely super shot, Pat - and congrats on making the trending page!
The composition is perfect, I love the promise of blue sky behind the breaking clouds.
The sea looks cold - with the choppy waves.
This is a FAV for me!
January 10th, 2014  
Great shot
January 10th, 2014  
Love the angle you have taken this at. My sister lives in Lancashire and I spoke to her this morning. She says it is pretty bleak there at the moment.
January 10th, 2014  
Great capture. Love the line of the fence leading into the choppy sea. And the pebbles in front adds even more interest. Fav'ing.
January 10th, 2014  
Good to see this on the PP
January 10th, 2014  
Goodness Trending and PP! What a great shot for you!
That Hobbit Village I think you mention is my home town Matamata!
January 10th, 2014  
Great composition.
January 10th, 2014  
I love this - the sea looks like it's churning but the light is fantastic
January 10th, 2014  
Great shot Pat. Love the angle you have taken it from
January 10th, 2014  
Love this Pat, it's a fav. Such a strong composition.
January 10th, 2014  
How did I miss this yesterday, fantastic.. love the pink tinge in the sky.. I haven't seen any of the Tolkien Movies.. not good seeing as they have kiwi director and filmed here.. am I missing out of something?
January 10th, 2014  
I like the simplicity of this with just the three elements. It seems beautifully balanced.
January 11th, 2014
