St Mary's Lighthouse just north of Whitley Bay on the Northumberland Cast, the small rocky tidal island (or part time island if you like) is linked to the mainland by a short concrete causeway which is submerged at high tide as seen here, you can see the causeway leading under the water.
This was going to be the only day I could shot this on this trip so I opted for high tide and just hoped I'd get some decent clouds to use.... which thankfully duly obliged, I picked this spot after a while walking around having a look and although I'm pleased with the place I chose it seemed to be the worst possible place to stand as I soon noticed there were hundreds of what I can only describe as 'sand fleas' leaping about and flying round, never come across these annoying things before.. by the time I was done shooting here they were all over me and all over the camera resulting in me having t have a right good shake down like a dog that's just got out of the sea... horrible critters. The joys of shooting seascapes...
