Low tide; low sun; magic combination...



Apart from weather forecasts (for what use they are), the one thing I can trust are tide tables; predictions that tell me when high and low tides are expected, and are invaluable for the photographer that shoots anywhere there are tidal differences. I have, for many years, used Easy Tide: the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office's free site for predictions up to seven days in advance, anywhere on the planet.

Armed with this information, plus that of any number of websites available that show sunrise/sunset times and directions, is often all I need to be in the right place at the right time. That, and a bit of luck from Mother Nature (above).



12-24mm f/4G AF-S Nikkor. 1/125 second at f/8. ISO 400
