Bright Lights

Brrrrr, chilly today, sky grey, very breezy, soup making later I think.

Today I am following on from yesterday with a few more photos.  The first two were taken during daylight and this one shows the seafront with the tide completely in

This next shot was taken from the pier looking back towards the shore

and here is that domed building as it looks at night, the photo is a little hazy because him indoors is still trying out different settings for night shooting

The next few snaps are all of the bright lights

Once again Mike was fiddling with the settings and making notes as he went along so this next one is not as good as it should be but I have used it to give you more flavour of what it is like after dark

Lastly, Mike would be the first one to confess that this is not a good clear shot, so please do not think you have double vision.  He apologises and did not really want me to use it. The reason I am posting it is because I still think that it is pretty!

I wonder what it is about illuminations. They have enchanted me ever since I was a little child and they still do, I love it when people start to hang their lights at Christmas. There is something magical about them and yet they are just bulbs, white or coloured, they are just bulbs.  We flick on the light in our homes at night and never give it another thought - but put them together en masse and in various colours and we are instantly children again.

That concludes the little tour of a seaside town. Him indoors will have to come up with some different places.  I have no idea what I shall write about next time, suffering a bit of writer's block at the moment, we all know that feeling I am sure.

Wishing you all a pleasant week.
