First off, it is an early evening trip to Oare Marshes, on the south bank of the Swale Sea Channel, near Faversham, Kent. The site is an internationally important nature reserve, but there is also a history of the manufacture of gunpowder and boat building, although the former is long gone and there is scant evidence of the latter, these days.
The photograph shows the joining of the Faversham (left) and Oare Creek (foreground) at Hollowpoint. The tide is clearly out at the time of shooting, but the creeks and channels are open for navigation when the water returns at this remote and tranquil area.
24-70mm f/2.8 AF-S Nikkor. 1/125 second at f/8. ISO 640

You have captured the place beautifully. :)
Thank you, Nic. I am looking forward to returning to the marshes in the autumn. :-)
