DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN ON ME

Photograph taken in the Golden Hour around sunset at 19:07pm on Thursday May 25th 2013 off Botany Road and Foreness Close, along the Golden sands and rocky shoreline of Botany Bay, the Northern most of seven bays in Broadstairs, Kent, England. The seven bays are (from south to north) Dumpton Gap, Louisa Bay, Viking Bay, Stone Bay, Joss Bay, Kingsgate Bay and Botany Bay. This view looks from Kingsgate Bay into Botany Bay.

 

 

There is something about the Golden hour that produces the most wonderful intensity of light and colour, amplified by the reflections from the wet sand as the tide began to stroke the coastline upon her return. A gentle stroll before the hour long drive back home, what more could a man ask for.
