Belle was busy defending the nest from the Black Kite invader. It eventually moved on but no doubt will keep returning.

No time for photography this weekend. I have been cleaning up the back garden after the water board did the sewer re-lining. What a mess they left!

Wallasey Sea Defence

A first visit for me to East Anglia last year to capture something new and did plan a revisit for this year which currently not able to do a visit here again is definitely on my list.

 

A long exposure of almost 7 minutes with a 16stop firecrest filter, sea mist was coming and going and having black and white in mind for this particular image leaving the compulsory seagull or 2 which these days seem to be captured and so long as they are not too blurred will leave them in.

 

Being my first visit didn't quite time the tide correctly as the sea defences were getting covered by the high tide quickly, also a slightly unusual crop as I didn't have long enough to gauge positions this one being the better of the images captured.

Sea Defence at New Brighton

2 more pics of the fort gate at Fort Canning Park in Singapore. The steps led up to the roof of the structure but there wasn't much of a view from up there.

Groynes are a popular form of sea defence on the Norfolk coast. Coastal erosion is a particular problem in Overstrand and along the North Norfolk coast. Predictions of future sea level rise due to climate change are only likely to exacerbate this.

The sea defences at Torcoss were built in 1979 in response a huge storm when the waves went over the top of the seafront houses causing major damage and the main road that runs parallel to the beach has been washed away a few times causing big transport headaches .Some of the seafront buildings are still under repair from Storms that have happened over the last few years .....Torcross,Slapton Sands,South Hams,South Devon,England

With a few exceptions, high rise offices and skyscrapers in Paris have been confined to the area of La Defence on the edge of Paris City Centre. Much like a Parisian Canary Wharf. This is the view looking up the Av. de la Grande Armee onto Av. Charles de Gaulle. The modern Grande Arche can be seen between the skyscrapers at the end. With the Arc de Triomphe at this end (where the photo was taken from) this makes an Arch at either end. I took a few hand held shots here and this was the sharpest without the use of a tripod. It was pretty windy at the time as well.

I thought the strong vertical stripes and the street furniture, made for an interesting abstract composition, I had previously processed this in colour, but think it works really well in mono?

 

Its actually a ventilation shaft for the Paris RER line :)

Fort Thüngen, Luxemburg

Ive. One from NEOWISE night. Not the best detail in the shadows as it was going dark by then, and I was perched on the sea defence like an evil troll, I.e. no tripod. Anyway, I still quite like it. Happy Tuesday!

High tide defense at Withernsea UK

Opened by the Queen in 1984, the Thames Barrier cost £500 million to build and spans 520m (1,706ft) across the river Thames at Woolwich Reach, in south-east London.

 

The Thames Barrier is composed of 10 gates, which are raised monthly for testing. These gates help to regulate the flow of water in the Thames, which is a tidal river all the way to Teddington Lock in south-west London. The barrier stops tidal surges from flooding large parts of London, as well as during periods of high flow in Teddington Weir.
