This is a photo of the reflection of the wharf and the evening sky in a tidal pool at Port Maitland Beach.
Egrets are formidable predators. This one snagged a baby thresher shark in the tidal flats of Tamales Bay. In this case, the predator was prey as it is for baby predators all around nature.
Taken at Seaham, County Durham on Thursday. I was hoping to capture some of the large waves pounding the coastline, which I thought might be scaling the Lighthouse. Sadly the waves were huge but no sign of them on the Lighthouse Pier. They were rising in excess of 20ft as they hit the prom.

The Wash
South Holland
In 2015, a new tidal gauge was installed in The Wash. It will help the Environment Agency measure tides, predict flooding and assess the impact of climate change more accurately.
it completes a national network of 44 gauges that record information about sea levels to provide more accurate forecasts.
The instrument is on a platform measuring approximately 2 meters across and 11 meters above sea level. It’s located 4km offshore in The Wash close to the port of Sutton Bridge.
This is a photo of the golden light of sunset illuminating beach sand and a tidal pool at Port Maitland Beach. The image has been copied and mirrored to be symmetrical, which reveals a pareidolia face.
In the afternoon I had wandered back to this beautiful estuary and the tide was well advanced covering my tracks of the morning. The S of the estuary was still well pronounced so I decided a more intimate composition to capture the shape. I sat here for a while watching the tide taking the odd photo to record the change, finishing off with a series of the long exposures as the S complete vanished. During these latter photos I had the good fortune to share my cheese roll with a friendly robin, it does get better than this.
During a recent visit to Logie Head to the east of Cullen in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, I took time out from my objective to get a couple of shots of the cliffs in my own style. This is one of the best spots along the Moray Firth for trad climbing and offers a range of challenges for beginners all the way up to some of the best climbers. This area is called the tidal zone, for obvious reason and features some of the more technical and challenging routes. The waves this day would make climbing even on the "dry" sections of rock almost impossible due to the amount of spray from the sea soaking the rocks like heavy rain.
Another one from the archives. I took this at Miracle Beach, on Vancouver Island, a few years ago.
This image didn't show up on most peoples' activity feeds. I contacted Flickr support, but they weren't able to help yesterday. They said they would add me to the many other people who are having the same issue and try to resolve it. Hasn't this been going on for weeks now?
This is a photo of a submerged black rock and sunlight refracting through the wind blown ripples in a shallow tidal pool at Port Maitland Beach.
'Be Creative' Club in house competition entry. I think I messed up on this theme and went off at a tangent?
When the Hornibrook Highway bridge between Brighton (Brisbane) and Redcliffe across the wide estuary of the Pine River (North and South) closed, it was initially replaced by the bridge on the left known as the Houghton Highway. This had tidal flow lanes but in time, it became totally congested at peak times in particular and was augmented by the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge (right) in 2010. They then became one way each with three lanes.
Rather than snipping out the history of the three bridges which of course is rather large, I have appended a number of links below.
In this photo though you will notice that the Houghton Highway, like the Hornibrook before hand has bumps, two in fact across the two channels in the estuary to allow small craft to pass underneath. The Ted Smout bridge does not, it is built at a higher level in its entirety, reputed to be above tsunami height. The bridges are both approximately 2.7 kilometres long and the lamps have been designed to deter Pelicans from resting on them. Losing sight of the road in front because of a large white splat at 80 kph is not a happy event!
This shot is taken from the Brighton end.
