Standing under the pier is relaxing, but then your eyes become mesmerized by all the geometric shapes.

An update on the pier, since this photo was taken early 2024, there was a very, very heavy storm in late November with gale force 9 or so. Most timbers were shuttered by the waves. Sadly there are no announced plans to effect repairs.
Clearing the backlog, a Clevedon sunset from mid-September. The setting sun lighting up the pier under some fantastic cloud shapes. A 16:9 format.

Under the San Clemente Pier at night. The orange light comes from the lights up on the pier shining down on the water. This long exposure gave an eerie look to the bottom of the pier.
One from earlier in the Autumn. A shot of Penarth Pier before the sun came up - the morning blue hour.- and the fog came down.

Conditions were nice last evening ... a very low tide, no wind, and nice light at sunset allowing me to get under this pier.
If you look on the other pier you can see my daughter was there taking some photos too on this pretty winter evening.
I did get picture sitting on the bench out there as well ... that will follow most likely on Bench Monday :))
Another edit of the old pier at Swanage in Dorset taken back in December. I've given it a different crop and colour edit than my previous shot. I don't really go over old images that often but been a bit slack with the camera this week so having a play around in Lightroom just to keep me occupied.
The sinking sun shines through the railings on Brighton's Palace Pier, casting shadows across the wooden planking.

In April 1865 The Eastbourne Pier Company was formed with a working capital of £15,000. Work began in April 1866; Four years later Lord Edward Cavendish opened the pier although it wasn’t completed until 1872.
The pier is 300 meters long and built on stilts, which rest in cups on the seabed allowing the whole structure to move during rough weather.
The piers entrance was originally built on the lower promenade but due to the rough storms in 1877 it was swept away; it was then rebuilt at a higher level. In 1888 a 400-seater domed pavilion was built and just two years later a 1000-seater theatre, Bar, Camera Obscura and Office Suite replaced it, that same year two saloons were built in the midway.
During the Second World War decking was removed to host machine guns to provide a useful advantage point to repel enemy landings. In December 1942, an exploding mine caused considerable damage to the pier and nearby hotels; it had been tied to the stanchions by the local police, who were under the mistaken impression that it was fitted with a safety device
