I’ve moved up to the Newcastle area in the North East of England and there’s a whole new set of photographic opportunities here. Today I wondered about the area nearby and took these images in Whitley Bay and Seaton Sluice.
A couple taking a walk on the beach together on Valentines Day. I went for a Black & White look to give a timeless feel to the image. I also wanted the lighthouse in the background to be prominent in the frame to give context of where this photo was taken.
The beach front at Whitley Bay.
A mother out with her child on the beach... went for a Black & White look for the same reasons as the first frame.
I like the leading lines of the wall in this frame. It was fortunate that the sky was quite dramatic!
I like the seaside buildings in the background.
This was taken at Seaton Sluice.
A few minutes later and a different position, I managed to get the rays of the sun in a better composition within the frame.
The beach at Seaton Sluice looking towards Blyth.
The beach was covered in dappled light from the sun peering through the clouds.
Houses overlooking the sea at Seaton Sluice.
Boats moored up...
A boat coming in... and I also like the person sitting on the rock in this composition.
The windmills at Blyth. There are 9 windmills plus 2 huge versions!
Great Pic’s mate, I’m in Whitley bay on the 25th Feb, Newcastle on the 24th – Are you going to be around?
Yip, I’ll be around… Whitley Bay is 4 miles away…
