(Explored)
A few weeks ago I was trawling through Google maps looking to see what Kent's northern coastline had to offer, and came across these fantastic chalk stacks. Today I headed down towards Margate aiming for high tide and was very lucky with the weather. When I finally arrived after negotiating rush hour m25, walking down to the beach was totally worth the stressful drive. I can imagine this beach is incredibly popular on a sunny summers day, but today with the foreboding clouds it was just myself and the occasional dog walker.

Cap'n Jack Sparrow: We be sailing to Botany Bay
Me: Can't we go in the car it's only next to Margate!
I drove down this road this morning, before dawn, to get to my sunrise location. It's a little spooky in the dark.

This is another older shot taken in November of 2013. I had been wanting to visit the Botany Bay area for a while and made a point to stop by on my way home from a friends wedding in Hilton Head SC. Unfortunately my travel plans brought me here during mid day when lighting was not ideal, but I just made the best of the light I had and looked at it more as a scouting trip than anything. My wife and I really enjoyed ourselves and this really is a beautiful area to explore. I am definitely going to make a point to get back here again sometime this year.

although not a very large beach the landscape here is quite unique compared to most beaches here in the South...the tides have long since eroded this once beautiful plantation ,two originally and created these skeleton trees...truly quite a pristine place,,swimming would be cautionary due to all of the stumps in the water that are unseen..but just sitting and viewing is gift enough,or adding to the shell art others have created along the path..have a blessed day one and all..

Thích thì add nhé ;) nhớ ' POST ON MY WALL ' để biết ai vào với ai nghennn :P
Another one from Botany Bay, but at a faster shutter speed with no ND filters this time. Just to show the difference, I will post a long exposure from the same position tomorrow.
Looks best in Light box on black.
Then fairly new unit 8163 waits in Botany yard with 2471 oil train bound for points south on 29 July 1988. The area to the left looks for all the world like future railway works but was actually associated with the adjacent I.C.I. (later Orica) plant expansion.

and my favorite little breakwall, albeit pretty well the same as the other 30 along the bay ;)
The better pictures I took in Norfolk were nearly always made in the late afternoon and early evening. The low golden light suits an orange filter and seems to last longer than the “golden hour” of dawn.
I was very anxious that the tones here were as accurate as possible. Black and white pictures can easily become ridiculously dramatic. I certainly faked up some hideous monstrosities. Realism is a dodgy concept - particularly when you don’t use colours - but I think we owe honesty to the subject and ourselves.
This is Botany Bay between Hindringham and Bale. The farmhouse - as far as one can tell - is a pleasant late 18th century building. At the time it was built the countryside was being transformed and topical names were popular: I know of several Bunker’s Hills (which appears to be how it was actually spelt ) :)
Botany Bay, in New South Wales, became the site of a penal colony in 1788 . Exile there was like being sent to Pluto. It was unimaginably far away. A detailed map of 1815 shows this landscape very much as we see it now, with Botany Bay specifically identified as a tiny field beyond the house on the boundary of the parish. So the name here is probably a joke: This was the edge of the small world of Hindringham - and is still, rather strikingly, remote.
