Macro sunset

Macro sunset

Three hundred and sixty-odd days of 2008, day 149

An almost entirely accidental sunset shot taken on the north Morecambe shoreline. It was only as I was tweaking the levels on this that I noticed that the horizon is skewed. I like it that way.

I'm well aware that:

1) I'm behind with posting these and
2) I need to do less sunset shots, because they're getting a bit tired now.

Left behind by man and the tide, lying on a seaweed-filled beach. The perfect focal point for a photograph of the bay in the morning.

Infrequently used, I fear

The Morecambe and Heysham yacht club racing office at Morecambe. I wonder how often it gets used.

Many monuments to man

The view out over the bay from the moors above Caton and Littledale. In the near distance, the salt-cruet shape of Ashton Memorial. Behind that, the twinned bulk of Heysham nuclear power station and, in the far, far distance (and not visible except in the large version), its newer cousin, the Morecambe Bay offshore wind farm.

The landscape is lovely. I wish we could stop putting things all over it.

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
