A Year of Days - Day 300: Southwold Beach

Today, together with my brother and sister-in-law, I visited the Suffolk coastal town of Southwold. This is one of the numerous groynes whose function is to break down wave action to minimise beach erosion.

Best viewed on black, I think...

[Taffy]

They form a strong leading line into the scene.

[PhotoCrazy]

Wonderful lines, details jump out on black!

[Caroline]

Beautiful shot Richard, and indeed it pops on black!

[Sebastian Gritt]

You can almost hear the tide sucking.

[Wylie]

oo, looks bleak!

[Francoise]

and always the birds who find their perches along the sea.

[Ivan]

So nicely done in B&W.

[Margo Sayer]

Great array of textures from the sea mass to the foreshore. Miss it...

[gloria jones]

Great b&w shot, composition, lines

[Jasper]

Very nicely balanced composition.

[Joan Robillard]

And now the beach.

[CarlasBWPortraits]

Pylons running into the water ... always a winner. Looks cold, windy or is that because of the B&W?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It looks windy and chilly but I'd still want to take a walk along that beach!

[Frank Hymus]

The line works quite nicely.

[Yeshanghai]

Beautifully captured

[Clare Gadsby]

I love Southwold. Great capture of that beach :)
