Calshot Beach Huts
Taken on Calshot Beach, Hampshire, England, this pebble beach lies on the Solent, west of Southampton Water's Estuary Mouth. It also falls within the New Forest National Park.
Calshot is famous for Calshot Castle, the destination of the first RAF flying boats that flew in England in the 1930s. It was also in the 1930s that it was used as the base for the RAF High Speed Flight, a unit of the RAF that was set up to support the challenge for the Schnieder Trophy.
A cloudy and damp morning put a stop to any spectacular sunrise but a break in the clouds just off to the east gave the beach huts a wonderful glow while the clouds still shadowed the beach itself.
Taken with a tripod and a relatively slow shutter, very little has been tweaked from the original shot.
