Those Pines Again 1
Once again the forecast for Saturday morning was for it to be totally overcast. Too risky, then, to travel too far for a low probability of a good sunrise. However my experience of the last few weeks has been that forecast cloud has been less total than anticipated and its been worth a short trip to see what's been going on. As we had a high tide at sunrise this morning there was only really one destination for me - the 15 minute drive to Budleigh Salterton. Once there it was apparent that any activity in the sky was out to sea, and it was too windy for reflection shots near the carpark. I ventured up the White Bridge path a little way so that the sun was rising behind the scots pines and the choppy water was more of a gentle ripple pattern. A standard location for me but one I've not visited for some time.
