The tides are high

A Condor 'Wavepiercer' passes through a sunset scene...







.. and arrives in St. Helier... a tricky shot that was never going to look great but never mind :)






.. I think this one has more going for it...







.. with a dramatic sky behind the castle.







Another tricky light shot, included just in case it does anything for you.






One of those rare occasions where I've done absolutely nothing to the shot except to resize down to 800 x 600...








.. and another...







.. and one I did 'crop' as required. This was about a 39ft tide...





.. which, if you'll excuse the bodged shot taken in a rush, at least shows the new lifeboat on almost the same level as the pier (you'd normally have to peep down over the edge to see it!)







.. and the ferries look nice and high for a change compared to the Elizabeth Terminal area...






.. closer, excuse the 'noisy' (grainy) pic.

.. and another evening Out West

.. yet another sundown :o)









Not a lot I can say about this. It's a sky.






.. as is this.







And this.







This time there's even some beach.







Landmarks...







La Rocco Tower.







Looking North. It's very warm here in the evening after a hot day's sunshine warms up the concrete.






- and the other way.







Switching to Cloudy white balance warms up the shot...







.. and gives nice colours... I must play with that some more. I've tried to stick to realism so far, but I quite like the effect...







.. La Corbiere Lighthouse.

Another Sunset Out West

Looking over to St.Ouen's Pond and L'Etacq on the way down the hill...







.. and out to sea.







By the sand pits lake.







Down onto the beach then...







Togetherness and Loneliness.






I found a pool for reflections...







.. which kept me busy!







How sweet...







.. more of the same.







.. etc.







Too dark to surf.







Damp sandridges.

Sunset at Lewis Tower

(the same night as La Rocco sunset pics)

Here's Lewis Tower from the east...







.. and from the south...









.. as the sun prepares to set.







.. promising to be a colourful one.






Towards L'Etacq...
.. a messed up pic I may redo at some point, another time.






Down south...







German fortifications in front of ours from the 1800s...
(Kempt Tower)






.. and again, Lewis's Tower.







Dimpled sand







Dog walkers







There goes the sun then....
































Nearly gone...







Bye then.
