Door Jonathan van den Broeke, Zoutelande
Donderdagavond was er eindelijk weer eens een prachtige zonsondergang te zien aan het strand van Zoutelande.
After parking the car it was a short walk downhill to Traigh Mangarstadh (Mangersta) to watch the surf roll in. As I explored the rock formations along the southern end of the beach, I came upon these rocks. When I came behind the seaweed covered rocks, the angle of the sunlight turned the strands of draped seaweed into strands of gold.
Traigh Mangarstadh (Mangersta) is located on the B8011 on the western coast of the Isle of Lewis.
The Strand is beautiful with buses,
Fat and majestical in form,
Red like tomatoes in their trusses
In August, when the sun is warm.
They cluster in the builded chasm,
Corpulent fruit, a hundred strong,
And now and then a secret spasm
Spurs them a yard or two along.
Scarlet and portly and seraphic,
Contented in the summer's prime,
They beam among the jumbled traffic,
Patiently ripening with time,
Till, with a final jerk and rumble,
The Strand tomatoes, fat and fair,
Roll past the traffic lights and tumble
Gleefully down Trafalgar Square
'Buses On The Strand' by RP Lister: (1914 - )
I really wanted to illustrate this delightful poem and hung around on various Strand corners trying to get the shot. The light was going and I was walking to the tube when - voila - there they were. the phantoms of the Strand Tomatoes
By far the best sunset of the holiday. We nipped out on a cloudless evening to visit Trebarwith Strand for the sunset. Upon arriving, there was already one tog set up for the classic trebarwith shot, so I left the other half reading a book on her kindle and headed round the corner to see if there was anything interesting to shoot.
In the end I was extremely glad I did, as I found a depression in the cliffs which was absolutely stuffed with flowers. To top things off, as the sun dipped below the horizon, clouds started to magically appear as the air cooled and the water condensed.
I'm never 100% happy with anything I take, but this shot sums up Cornwall for me.

Auf der positiven Seite, sie musste nicht töten oder alle kleinen Kinder verstümmeln...
This is an anonymously published postcard showing The Strand looking east from the junction with the Aldwych. The year is 1912, seven years on from my previous post of the scene. The Sunshine Girl is playing at the Gaiety Theatre, starring George Grossmith Jr and Phyllis Dare in another Edwardian musical comedy. The play ran from February for 336 performances and this appears to be sometime in the summer. In the middle is St. Mary Le Strand and Somerset House is middle right.
