Blyth at Sunrise

The only half-decent long exposure I managed in Blyth this morning. After my last shot of these posts was ruined by light leakage through my filter kit, I was determined to get a good shot of this today. It’s okay, but lacking atmosphere.

Blyth at Sunrise II

My long exposures weren’t working out well this morning due to the low tide and a very calm sea, so I focussed my efforts on the dramatic clouds that were building up over St. Mary’s as the sun rose.

Blyth at Sunrise

It was raining cats n’ dogs in Blyth this morning, so I took refuge under the pier. The angles and lines are great down there, though the colour is very drab and grey - hence the black n’ white adjustment!

Blyth at Sunrise

The sky was grey and colourless this morning, but this looks nice in monochrome. It’s just a shame about the burnt-out sun. I wish I could blur out the sea like this, but keep the crisp detail in the clouds!
