A black and white photograph of a sizeable chunk of driftwood.

This bought to my mind as if a Walrus was rearing up.

Taken at Sandbay, Kewstoke, Weston, Somerset, UK.

Nesting Bird in Black & White

#BlackAndWhitePhotography #BlueSky #CloudySky #Driftwood #Sandbay #Beach

Driftwood on a beach that, in two dimensional black and white, seems as if a bird is on a nest in front of sand dunes and grasses.
Taken under a blue sunny sky with white fluffy clouds, at Sandbay, Kewstoke, Weston, Somerset, UK.

A Single Small Tree Amongst Driftwood
#Beach #Sandbay #Tree #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Driftwood

A black and white 5x4 photograph of the beach at Sandpoint, Sandbay, Kewstoke, Weston, Somerset, UK.
A single tree or bush reaches up left with its tallest branch, whilst standing in spring sunlight at the foot of the raised bank that forms the sea defense.
Above this landscape is a band of grey sky line that graduates into a lighter then a darker band of cloud.
In amongst and on top of the grasses, that have pervaded this corner of Sandbay beach, there is a miriad of flotsom and jetsom including much driftwood.
At the horizontal middle of the image, from the tree out to the right hand edge, is the cliff at Kewstoke and on top this a wood and houses.

A Permian Resemblance
#Permian #Landscape #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Coastal #WestonSuperMare #WestonBay #Sandbay #Driftwood #BristolChannel #Steepholm

A black and white 5x4 photograph of beach at Sandpoint, Sandbay, Kewstoke, Weston, Somerset,UK.
From the bottom left the flooded footpath snakes toward the - very small - cliff, near the top right of the image. In the centre of the picture is a large tree trunk of driftwood that, to my eye, resembles a kind of goat-headed serpent. On the horizon sits Steepholm Island in the Bristol Channel. Above this is a band of bright sky line that graduates into a darker band of cloud. The scene seems to have a passing resemblance to Permian times.

'Driftwood - Catchlight'

#SandBay #DriftWood #BlackAndWhitePhotography #PhotogSocial #MinoltaXE1 #Rokkor PF 50mm F1.7 #IlfordPan400 #FX55 #BelieveInFilm

A black and white photograph of a lump or stump of driftwood entangled in the shoreline grasses of Sandbay, Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, UK.
Taken on a Winter's afternoon in late low-angle, though bright, sunshine which is highlighting a cut off and stripped of bark limb. This limb is the focal point of the image.

'Back Lit Grasses'

#SandBay #Grasses #BlackAndWhitePhotography #PhotogSocial #MinoltaXE1 #Rokkor PF 50mm F1.7 #IlfordPan400 #FX55 #BelieveInFilm

A black and white photograph of back lit grasses on the shoreline at Sand Bay, Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, UK.
One particular seed head is in focus with the rest defocused or blurred. There is a lighter hexagon in the picture caused by the low angle sunlight compromising the lens, causing flare.

#TidesOutTuesday digging for lugworms to use as bait in #SandBay #Westonsupermare used to be #CloseToHome as I grew up there many moons ago #WeAreRoamers #EastCoastKin #Seascape

Sandy beach under blue skies. The tide is far out as this is on the Bristol Channel which has the 2nd highest tidal range in the world. In the distance is the South Wakes coast and to the right us Sand Point. A group of people including children are digging for lugworms to use as sea fishing bait. This is something we did as a child too as my dad fished along this coast

If you've never seen The Fruit Machine, this is your chance. The LGBT Purge Fund has paid for a license so that more people can see it for free. It's the story of he purge of lgbtqia2s+ veteran's from Canada's military & RCMP. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z5f...
