Spring tides and surf in Torbay

The period of spring tides made me head into the Bay looking for the very low tide.  I’ve found in the past that you can access/photograph rock pools that cannot be seen for much of the month and that was the plan.  There was only one day of the peak tides [...]

A morning of contrasts

I looked out quite early and realised it was not a day for being in the valley of the river Dart.  In spring and autumn mist will often remain in the valley for quite some time.  However there was the promise of some sun to come.

A different take on dawn

Looking for some “good dawn” images I headed into the Bay for 6:30 am with dawn being at 7:15 am.  By the time I looked into the Bay I could see that I was not going to get a “clear” sunrise of any sort; the lights in the distance are Brixham.  [...]

Light on water

Having caught up with the backlog of the holiday snaps I started working on the relatively small number I’ve taken since I’ve been back and wondering about my next post.  These are not all taken on the same day but I realised that on a number of days I’d taken photos [...]

The sea and the sky

A short evening wander around the centre of Torbay and I found from a photographic perspective that looking down at the sea and up at the sky was the most rewarding.

At Goodrington the last light of the sun on the waves looked good.  The area has some colourful buoys marking [...]

Summer afternoon on the beach!

The weather had not been that good for a few days so despite it looking a little grey and rather thundery I decided I had to get out.

It looked a little brighter when I got to Goodrington beach.  It was quite warm and rather windy – the beach had [...]

Fishing for photos…

For a variety of reasons I’ve not been out much recently and certainly not as much as I would have liked. The evening looked promising so I headed for Brixham hoping for some good sunlight. As is so often the case it didn’t quite work out like that but I still found some scenes [...]
