Twin Towers
Burnham-on-sea Low Lighthouse

Another photo foray with shooting partner Em, a few weeks ago. As we travelled up the motorway towards Burnham-on-Sea, we knew we were in for a visual treat, as all around the sky was restless, heavy and contorted. Barely 15 minutes on the beach and this scene unfolded before us.

It's not hard to see why this grade II listed lighthouse on Burnham beach is so popular to photograph.

The sunlit buildings to the left of the scene are Hinkley Point Power Station.

I've just returned from a 12 day trip around the ringroad of Iceland and wanted to post this one before I started editing those images.

Lighthouse in a storm
Burnham-on-sea Low Lighthouse

Managed to tick off another 'Bucket list' location recently with a trip to Somerset to see this little lighthouse amongst other things. This is Burnham on Sea Low Lighthouse, also known as the lighthouse on legs. The weather was proper stormy for a while that morning and that gave great contrasts when the sun popped out from between the storm clouds.
