Stormy on the East Coast

In the style of an excitable teen who has just discovered exclamation marks :)  ...

Look at the water surge over the sea wall!

Look at the spray higher than the tower!

Look at Archirondel getting a battering, and the colour of the churned up water!!

Look at the orange boat as high as the pier, the water flooding off the pier, the coastline in the distance pounded by waves!

Look at the beachside cafe washed up at Longbeach!!

Rozel landslip destroys old beach hut

 There has been a row of beach huts here for many years. See the blue one?...

 .. too much rain lately, and...

.. now there's a sad gap along the pier.

Misc and Mist

 First, the terrible news that the Lions have left the Lion Park.

:)

On Sunday the sky looked like a freeze-frame of choppy waters, all peaks and troughs. By the time I decided I actually would slow the car down and pull over for snap, the effect wasn't so dramatic.

The gate at St.Brelade's Church...

... closer, with Ouaisne beyond.

Compare and contrast : luxury homes, seaside hotel leisure - and the ever-present inevitable :)

Again, a half-hearted rushed snap, trying to get a composition out of foreground and background, and not coming up with much!

Squint a little, and from a distance it looks like a cityscape of towers. Monuments at St.B, and a misty bay behind.

.. the same mist that engulfed St.Aubin's Fort...

 .. and Corbiere

- and to the right, St.Ouen's Bay and La Rocco Tower.
