The impending sunrise caused ever more intense colours to develop out to sea. Here the water was looking almost molten as the sky was on fire.
Every year Lord Nelson makes an appearence at the Maritime Festival. This year though he was here on his own - normally there is a Lady Nelson with him.
Despite not having a better half with him, Nelson still posed for a couple of pictures. His previous appearences with Lady Nelson can be seen here and here
With yesterday's Boxing Day blizzard here on the Outer Banks, it made a great opportunity for photography of the OBX in a new setting. This house is one of my favourites on the 4x4 beach, standing out just a little closer to the beach from the others, with a lovely coastal look. Quite different when everything is covered in snow, though!
The fountains at Lowestoft seafront. After dark there are coloured lights under the streams which colours the water nicely.
Southwold recently hosted a Mini Rally. Over 100 Mini cars turned up and there was plenty to see.
This group had lined up nicely offering me a countdown.
I paid a visit to Nicholas Everitt park by the Broads recently. There were lots of vistors there including several families. This family particularly caught my eye though.
After the sun went down in London, I kept the camera out.
The National Gallery at Trafalgar Square was looking particularly good lit up at night. It took a few shots to a half decent photo of it, but hopefully it was worth crouching down on a cold evening for 15 minutes or so.
I have got a photo of the Gallery before during the day which can be seen here
Natural pools just beyond the beach area at Walberswick. These areas are havens for birds and other animals.
Of all the dogs who were on the beach, this one had to have been the most lively. He spent all his time running. If he wasn't chasing a squeaky ball he was running about with other dogs or just charging round the beach.
He definitely should have been tired when he got home, but I bet he would have gone straight out again given half a chance.

I had been meaning to head over to Horsey beach over the winter period, but the wild weather we during that time put me off.
I finally paid Horsey a visit the other week. The reason I was so keen to go was to see the Seals who settle there over the winter period. I was worried that having left it so long I might have missed them. That definitely wasn't the case though as there were dozens of them relaxing on the beach.
This particular Seal was more lively than most looking very alert & paying close attention to what was going on.
These Gulls were sitting near the Fish Shack. They were keeping a very beady eye on the comings & goings @ the Shack in case it resulted in a feeding opportunity.
I recently paid a visit a nature reserve in Walberswick, a village near me.
I had taken my long lens with me in the hope of capturing some wildlife. That was a task which proved easier said than done. I did stop to get this shot though of a wooden path through a reed bank. The path led to a bird hide. Sadly there weren't many birds about, maybe they heard I was visiting.
Some of the earliest shots I loaded on to Flickr were taken at this nature reserve, they can be seen here:

The long arm of the paw??
This is what happens when you are a bit bored on a rainy afternoon. I found an old fancy dress police hat & took Mac into "The Studio" for a photoshoot. The photo here was my favourite from the shoot.
A striking scene from Dunwich woods. The trees were planted in a straight line making it look like an aisle.
Some very brightly coloured grass growing on the river bank. The soil must be particularly fertile round the river.
