A UNESCO World Heritage Site, The Porto Wine Quay presents a stunning array of coloured houses sweeping up the hill from the Douro river into the city.
The Quay, which consists of The Haven Inn public house, a fishmonger's shop, a number of ex-fishermans' cottages and a large car park, is still used by local fishing boats as well as being a base for many water sports. A RNLI inshore lifeboat station is on the Quay and can be seen in the background.
Blackwall Quay is where British settlers set out to establish a colony at Jamestown, Virginia (USA) in 1607. The Blackwall name dates to the Middle Ages and the Thames River black retaining wall. Today it's a thriving residential community.
Clarke Quay Singapore used to be godowns along Singapore River where boats delivered their goods here to be stored in the 19th century. Today it has been conserved, redeveloped and transformed into a place for dining, pubs and bars which attract tourists and locals.
The present-day Mudeford Quay was constructed in the late 1940s. Immediately prior to this, The Haven, as it was then known was surrounded by sloping beaches. The Run then was much wider than it is now and the area was subject to terrible erosion. So much so that Christchurch Council purchased the whole area in 1945. Five years later the area had been raised and reinforced with steel piles and concrete. Today the Quay, which consists of The Haven Inn public house, a number of ex-fishermans' cottages and a large car park, is still used by local fishing boats as well as being a base for many water sports. A RNLI inshore lifeboat station is on the Quay.
I paid an evening visit to Salford Quays last weekend to get some blue hour shots of the lights and reflections. Unfortunately it was very overcast (that’s Manchester for you!) and there was quite a breeze which was disturbing the water, but nothing a 10 stop ND can’t help with. Which, with all of the people milling about, was actually preferable.
This was one of the earlier shots of the session, prior to the lights coming on. Shot as a 10 shot pano.
Taken last week on a cold but sunny walk, on the Ceredigion coastal path just after leaving the beautiful sands of New Quay beach.
Die neue Woche beginnt mit einem " Gute Laune Foto"
Sitzen darf man nicht, und liegen? Vielleicht doch:-)
You are not allowed to sit and lie? Maybe yes

Blakeney Quay, Norfolk. At centre is the landmark Blakeney Hotel. Its black lower courses are not purely decorative. At the most severe high tides the sea laps it.

Nach einer nervenden Busfahrt (Northern Rail streikte) wurde ein Zwischenstop in Whitehaven eingelegt. Mal rauf auf den Kai, dann zurück in den Pub. Anschließend fuhr uns doch noch Northern nach Barrow-in-Furness.
So last night it didn't look like there would be any sunset. My pal Franklin had been asking for a lesson on drone photography so we headed out more to focus on flying than photography. The sky was dull and grey right until sunset when the sun peeped out for a few minutes lighting up those beautiful Altocumulus clouds. Technically this is his photo but he was under my direction so he's going to have to share - I've also got the sdcard lol
I tried to find a new viewpoint of Bosham Quay so walked around the back of an Oil Seed Rape field opposite the Quay. Some of the flowers are out of focus as I was standing on my tip toes to get a clear view despite being 6ft 3in!

JULY 2013
Shortlisted for the final of the UK Landscape Photographer of the Year 2013
Hopefully a new angle on an old favourite of mine. The low sun was coming from the right direction to cast some fairly good light on the old hulk.

I've wanted to go to Salford Quays for a while. For somewhere that looks so nice it's surprisingly hard to photograph. There are too many different shapes and sizes of buildings to get a balanced photo. I took a lot over the water but it was this bridge photo that seemed like my best once I started to process them on the computer. I have given this one a tweaked cross process effect, one of the standard effects in Lightroom.
