Fleshwick Bay


Inspired by my photo tour and the continuation of a spot of reasonable weather, E and I headed to another place on the western coast, Fleshwick Bay. This is a small, empty bay at the end of a narrow winding road. When you arrive, you find...nothing. Silence of the wind and birds and smell of seaweed. Except for the paved road, all is just as it has been for centuries.



Today, it is cloudier than for my photo tour so we get to enjoy the pastels in the sky of clouds less directly lit by the sun.


In longer exposures, the motion of the clouds brings a new drama to the scene. These blurs help bring the eye to the center of the image and balance the beach and rocks.


The clouds and sun continued to paint delightful images for us for quite a while.


As the day drew to an end, headed back to car so that we might get home before dark. We did not relish the thought to trying to drive the narrow dark roads after sunset.
