The sea defences on Cleethorpes beach at low tide under a rain filled sky, however shortly after it cleared up in to a lovely day.
The Northumbrian coast is littered with the remnants of World War 2 anti tank defences. This image was taken on a stormy morning before dawn on Alnmouth Beach.
Thank you for looking.

This week's Saturday Timewatch features a third in the series about defense constructions in Dorset over the millennia. The previous two concerned Iron Age and medieval defences.
This building is part of the large Upton Fort complex, originally constructed before WW1 but also used during WW2. I'm not sure of the exact date of this defensive outpost. Nor am I certain as to its purpose. Some say it is a searchlight battery but I don;t understand why there would be the concrete canopy at the front? That would surely obstruct beams for looking for enemy aircraft heading towards Portland Harbour in the distance? .
To me it has the look of an observation post, maybe with machine guns also available. However, I am very far from an expert on the subject so my thoughts are mere speculation.
This shot was taken at Valras Plage during our autumn holidays in the south od france. I used a Haida ND3 Filter.
Very murky on the South Coast today, with the waves testing the sea defences by the Shoreham Power Station.

Taken on an early morning flickr meet with Norfolk Cakes and Cameras at Happisburgh, Norfolk. A wonderful morning was had by all.

Had to go B&W as drizzle and mist came on a Sunday outing yet again, but what an area, I must go back soon and stay the weekend, so much to see and do.

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you've all had a wonderful day and didn't cross paths with too many zombies.
Luckily, though my path did cross many of zombies, I had defence serum at hand, and so the night closes in and I may be a bit shell shocked, but I have survived.
Hope you've all had the chance to time warp today.
