Chris Newham Photography

A shot from a recent weekend to Cromer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cromer) a low shot down the length of the pier. Same as previously uploaded shot but with a B&W conversion. Which do you prefer? A shot after the sun has set from the top of the cliffs looking down on the Victorian pier Stand on Menorca's north-eastern tip when the tramuntana is blowing and you will appreciate the island's savage beauty. Waves crash against crumbling slate cliffs, throwing sea spray high Into the air, and the solitary lighthouse acts as a reassuring reminder of humanity. Fortunately when I visited it was a gorgeous sunrise in a very nearly cloudless sky with the sunlight glinting on the wet slate. Dunstanburgh Castle lies on a spectacular headland on the coast of Northumberland in northern England, between the villages of Craster and Embleton. I arrived on the beach before sunrise taking great care not to break an ankle on the large slippery boulders and waited for the sunrise. This is a beautiful if not eerie atmospheric location at the eastern tip of Anglesey. The silence is broken every 30 sec by the toll of a bell warning ships of there fate in foggy conditions. The lighthouse was built following a major loss of life, on 17 August 1831, when an old steamer, 'The Rothsay Castle', ran aground and broke up on or near Puffin Island taking the lives of 117 passengers and crew with it. A wonderful late summer evening as the sunset it lit up the largely cloudless sky and reflected on the Church windows. It was this shot that started my love of landscape photography. A showery evening with some great light, a dark storm cloud passed over and dumped some rain on me as I huddled under my umbrella waiting, before the light changed and I captured the dark water laden cloud passing over the Church.

It was so cold as I waited for the sun to rise, as it broke the horizon it lit up the mist then a group of birds flew by and snap the shot was made. The sun had just set and the sky was turning navy blue but it was so cold my daughter said she had never been so cold :-) A isolated but favourite place of mine. A beautify day clear blue skies the tide has just turned and is starting to come in (fast) over the wide flat beach. Taken about an hour before sunrise as the morning light started to light the sky. Sunset at a famous viewpoint. Chris Newham on 500px
