* From Eastbourne to Seaford there is a solid wall of chalk cliffs along the shore of the English Channel . There is only one place where you can walk to the beach without risking life and limb. Cuckmere haven is a gap in the cliffs that allows the river Cuckmere to very gently meander its way through grassy meadows . It was late in the evening and the light was fading but we saw a lot of Egrets and herons but photographs were not really possible . In this shot as you look towards the channel . The cliffs of Seven sisters begin to rise on your left .
The best view of the haven is from the top of the steep road leading down but there was nowhere safe to pull over. We walked back up the hill a little way to get this POV but traffic was heavy and walking further did not seem sensible
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO
WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .
An impressionist view from the shore of one of the largest lakes at Plantsbrook Nature Reserve. A haven for wildlife, and one of my favourite places to walk with Marnie and my camera.

Many thanks, as always, for having a look and for your kind comments and faves -- I really do appreciate them all.
Thank you, everyone, who helped my picture into Explore on 12 August 2021 - I'm delighted and honoured !
The Reserve covers 369 acres of the Meon Valley, encompassing a mosaic of natural habitats. River, fen, pools, reedbed and meadow are carefully managed, giving protection to a range of special wildlife.
Still posting old stuff until new adventures arise.
This was Cuckmere Haven just days before Europe went into Covid lockdown. We watched the news every night and it became clear the World was on fire. March 16th we drove straight from Brighton to the Eurotunnel, with a small stop to shoot this picture, to get back to France. We had train tickets for late afternoon but exchanged those for a train just before noon.

Oude Haven Rotterdam , detail
Popular place
The Old Port - located in the Maritime District - with its beautiful historic ships is a popular place among Rotterdammers to eat, drink and dance. On summer days the terraces are full until the early hours. Such as Noah's terrace, voted the best cocktail bar in the Netherlands. In Europe's first skyscraper, Het Witte Huis, there is café Het Witte Huis, where you can have drinks and eat until late. Other hotspots are Stockholm, Mooii and Popocatepetl.
The Oude Haven is located in the Maritime District and can be reached by metro or train (Blaak station) or the Water Taxi.
We did the Seven Sisters walk from Beachy Head to Cuckmere Haven which was pretty tiring but there some great views to be seen on the way.

I am hoping conditions favor us again this year for frozen lighthouses. Grand Haven has no catwalk right now, so would provide a unique view.
I shot this in Grand Haven, Michigan in January.

Skrinkle
Situated on the Pembrokeshire coastline, Skrinkle Haven Beach and Church Doors Cove are located between Old Castle Head and Lydstep Point. It is an area of important geological interest, due to its limestone and red sandstone cliffs. This photo was taken at low tide from the coast path, you can see the Church Doors rock formation which featured in a previous upload. The beach is accessed by some quite steep steps, we think around 122, the counter lost count !
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
One more photo from the trip to the north of Russia. The night of that rainy and hard day was peaceful and beautiful. Even high grass and stones didn't disturb our sleep. Zenith MC Zenitar-C Canon 16 mm F/2.8 Fisheye, HDR.
Thank you for all the comments and favs, my friends.
