The beauty of sunset

A calm evening at Crosby beach, clouds are gathering in the north west,

but the sun sets in a golden glow.

Warm golden sunlight

Early morning, golden sunlight poured into the room, highlighting the greenery in a vase of flowers.

Autumn Colours

The new Lucas AB2 lens for the Hipstamatic App imparts a warm glow to the subject

making it the ideal lens for capturing the autumn colours as demonstrated in this close up of 

Acer leaves that are slowly turning red.

Sunlight and Storm

Today at Another Place, Crosby beach.

The tide was on the turn, leaving wet sand sparkling in the sunlight,

but the sun was playing hide and seek in the rain laden clouds

that raced in from the west.

Royal Visitor, Crosby beach

The Queen Mary 2 sailed past Crosby beach yesterday on her way into Liverpool.

A clear morning of mild sunshine and little wind.

A beautiful way to enter the city.

September Storms

September arrives with strong winds and rain.

The wet beach reflects the colour of storm clouds 

glowing in the last warm light from the setting sun.

End of Summer

The last sunshine of a September Sunday glimmers across the River Dee at high tide

but the clouds are gathering as a frontal system sweeps in from the west,

bringing rain, wind and an end to the balmy late summer day.
