Seascale Foreshore

The village foreshore at high tide in September 1998 becomes a pebble beach as shown here, an oncoming tide having engulfed a vast expanse of sand.

Technical Observations:

I spotted this heavy cloud coming in across the Irish Sea and waited a half hour or so for it to pass over the village. A grad grey filter was added to the lens to accentuate a dark and brooding sky and set the mood.
