The hot pipe
What a day I picked to have a wander along to Southwick to visit the Hot pipe, my only opportunity of the week to get out with my camera and I wanted a high tide too. Well I got the high tide and lots more, the swell was huge as it always is at this spot with the waves rushing up the beach.
I tried to do a long exposure but I could not keep the shutter open for too long because of the misty sea spray. I first shot this spot a few years back i`ll pop a link in to show you , so one reason for my visit was to see if the beacons were still there with a view to going back to shoot a sunrise there again. If you don`t know where this is it`s behind Shoreham power station and gets it`s name from the outlet where the cooling water used to come out of the power station, it used to be a great little surf spot too .
