Angry Skies and Wet Sands - Sweet Shot Tuesday 22/02

Last weekend was an opportunity to stay with family near Bournemouth, on the south coast of England. Often called "The English Rivera" it is a beautiful area in the summer with long sandy bays and many hours of sunshine. Of course in February it's different. The skies were heavy and angry with an occasional hint of sunshine.

When the sun did come out there was a contrast between the dark and white clouds, the wet and dry sand with the blue of the sky and grey of the cloud reflecting on the sand where it was wet.

Sweet Shot Tuesday 1101

When I went to Clevedon in North Somerset I was fully expecting to take some shots of a wild and windy afternoon. By the time I was in position the skies had cleared and the sun was peeking through. This is one of the shots I took that afternoon.
