Finding a tide pool for a composition is one thing, but it staying pristine before it gets trampled on by dog walkers (and their dogs), and early morning exercise enthusiasts before the light is right, is another.
Today I'm lucky.

The end of the beginning

A fleeting glimpse
When going out in the early morning with heavy cloud cover there's always the chance that I will return empty handed from a photo shoot. It nearly turned out that way today, but for the ten minutes of light immediately after sunrise.
After that the sun rose above the distant cloud bank and disappeared for the day.

Beach reclamation
The summer holiday season has all but finished and the beaches are being reclaimed by the locals. Seafront cafés and entertainment installations are either being dismantled, or abandoned until next spring.
My season has only just begun.

Work in progress
Comissioned street art is becoming commonplace, with murals sprouting up everywhere I look. This one, on the wall of a beach facility, is a work in progress.

On the lookout
I'm rarely alone on a beach when there's the expectation of something worthwhile to photograph. And why would I be? We all want to get take good pictures (and preferrably something others don't get), but the two or three fellow photographers that are set up before I arrive are in a cosy clump; all with long lenses pointing in the same direction; all getting roughly the same shot; all waiting for the sunrise.
Instinctively, I move further along the seashore in search of something they will miss, and I start shooting before the sun has risen.
