Leaving out the empties
The camera club held a workshop on the beach, early one Sunday morning, just before sunrise. It was grey and cloudy and my attention shifted from the incoming tide to the beach huts up on the prom. Presumably the beer bottle had been left by a late-night reveller the night before, but it reminded me of how my mum used to leave out empty milk bottles for the milkman to collect and replace on his daily round.
I'd have liked this image to have given more space around the top of the hut but the cropped version here actually looks better: sadly the beach hut had a flat roof and a lamp post directly behind it (why don't town planners consider photographers? ;-)
Thanks to BRCC and Roger Crocombe in particular for organising a dawn workshop. It was good to meet up and the rain held off, just until we were ready to leave :-)
