Saw the sky developing last night so as I didn't have time to go very far I had to grab the Olympus and run to the nearest place I could think of (won't be long before the old girls gone for good). I put the camera on on arrival only to find the battery icon flashing red, managed to fire off a couple of frames before it died. Just for kicks I tried handheld using the camera 5 axis in body stabilization, which I am amazed by (I've managed to shoot sharp shots at over a second) this was around a 5th of a second I think.
The wreck of an old boat by the old Tollbridge, a short walk from the office. I managed to hide the works most prominent structure - a large grey boxy building, which houses the vehicle emissions research centre - behind the boat

THANKS TO THE POWER OF INTROSPECTION
I just love this location for taking pictures. There are lots of wrecked boats
and ships laying on the mud waiting to be eaten by the water and time
Here's a different view of Susana taken by AntonioVi

I have seen and photographed many old boat wrecks along the shores of Ireland. They all have a lot of character and I am sure they all have interesting tales to tell.

Another sunset image from my recent few days holiday in Somerset.
This image is of the shipwreck of Norwegian barque SS Nornen which is located on Berrow beach near Burnham-on-sea.
I did not expect to see any colour from the sunset due to the heavy cloud cover but luckily there was a small clear area in the sky on the horizon which provided some colour to this dark dramatic image!
For those that are interested the SS Norman ran around in March 1897 when a howling south westerly gale swept up the Bristol Channel, bringing with it high seas, driving snow and sleet.
When the mists cleared on the morning of March 3, the crippled ship was spotted just off Gore Sands, her sails blown to rags by the gale. The Burnham lifeboat was launched with its crew of ten oarsmen battled through high seas and winds to the SS Nornen. Despite the gale, the lifeboat managed to get alongside the helpless ship, just as she was being driven onto the sands
.
The ship's crew of ten, together with their dog, were taken off by the lifeboat and landed safely at Burnham at three o'clock in the afternoon. The rescue is recorded on the honours board which stands in the entrance to the Burnham RNLI Station.

If you fancy a visit to the wreck you need to make sure the tide is low and park at St Mary's Church at Berrow, just south of Brean, take the foot path to your left and walk across the golf course over the sand dunes on to the beach and the wreck will be seen in northerly direction on the beach.

For those of you with an iphone, I have 100 of my "best" in an application called "ifolio". It is a free application
This week has been very busy for me so I had to get out and do some "therapy". When I arrived at Dicky Beach I got a big surprise. First, every beach access I tried was closed with a fence due to massive beach erosion. After the 4th attempt I found an access point to get down to the beach and walk towards the wreck. But wait....were there was another surprise, the wreck has been wrecked by the recent wild weather. One of my preferred sections of the wreck has been knocked over by wild seas. How sad to see this...it has lost a lot of it's magic for me.

Unbelievable, during my research about the plane wreck I found this. It makes me so sad: icelandmag.visir.is/article/myrdalssandur-sand-beach-famo...
The wreck at Saltwick Bay, North Yorkshire coast. The Admiral Van Tromp was a Scarborough trawler that ran aground on 30/09/1976.
The exact circumstance of the accident remain a mystery as the boat was on completely the wrong course and a senior nautical surveyor at the inquest stated it appeared it was driven onto the rocks deliberately.

Another shot of the wrecked boats at Salen on the island of Mull but this time taken as it was getting dark. I'm quite enjoying experimenting with flash at this time of the evening as it can produce some interesting results
I'm back after twenty days I spent in Scotland and England.
Here is a first picture of this trip that began with clouds and rain on the island of Skye
This wreck is rusting in Ingerness bay, Orkney since shortly after the Second World War.

Here is one of many small boats abandoned along the shore of the River Medway at Hoo, Kent. This is for my friend mickeydud who is helping me print some pictures for a project. He and I enjoyed a day out here with our local photography club and we were treated to some lovely skies. Thanks Mick.
Taken at Blyth beach this evening.
I truly wish the remains of this hulk of a hull wasn't next to the dilapidated pipe but you play the hand you're dealt!
The sky in front of me picked up some lovely pinky purpley hues however behind me it was ablaze. Sadly behind me was also Fergusons Transport yard. I refer to my former statement.
Still, this shot includes a wreck, a pipe, a pier, Blyth lighthouse and 3 wind turbines. Did a seascape ever include more interest?
Standing above the famous ship wreck at Navagio Beach on Zakynthos. It is an interesting perspective and a nice hike. Since the beach was closed for people some years ago I think it is easier to get nice shots because there will be no people/ships in your shot.
She has become known as, "The Corpach Wreck," however, her real name is MV Dayspring. She was built in 1975 and in her prime an excellent fishing vessel bringing mackerel and herring. She was renamed Golden Harvest by new owners and made her last voyage under her own power in 2001. She was left moored for several years at Kinlochleven Pier. Due to a raiser chain failure during a heavy storm she ran aground near the Corpach Sea Lock on the 8th December 2011 and has lain there ever since.
This is one beautiful piece of engineering beauty and ship design, I'd love to see her take to the water under her own power once more.
There’s no truth in the rumour that Red Bull are sacking their pit team. (The joke goes that the neds in Ruchill (substitute any desired area of your choice) can strip a car faster!). This is actually an artwork at Stockingfield Bridge - an old Rover motor car placed here deliberately.
