I had the pleasure of showing a fellow photographer from Holland around the coastline of the Moray Firth yesterday. It was great to see the place with fresh eyes when she pointed out compositions that she wanted to photograph that I had never noticed myself. I often photograph this scene but I never thought to climb up a little higher to get a different perspective on the area and take it all in. I loved the way I was able to catch the movement of the waves through this scene and keep Shitten Crag in the centre of the image. Everyday is a school day! This image was taken on the coastline of Portknockie in Morayshire, Scotland.
Dawn at Marsden Beach on the North East Coast. Some beautiful light and sea movement. A place definitely worth a return visit.
As ever thanks for viewing and have a great week.
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.

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.
Reino Unido de Gran Bretaña - Escocia - Dornie - Castillo Eilean Donan
ENGLISH
Eilean Donan (Scottish Gaelic: Eilean Donnain) is a small tidal island where three lochs meet, Loch Duich, Loch Long and Loch Alsh, in the western Highlands of Scotland. A picturesque castle that frequently appears in photographs, film and television dominates the island, which lies about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from the village of Dornie. Since the castle's restoration in the early 20th century, a footbridge has connected the island to the mainland.
Eilean Donan is part of the Kintail National Scenic Area, one of 40 in Scotland. In 2001, the island had a recorded population of just one person, but there were no "usual residents" at the time of the 2011 census.
Eilean Donan, which means simply "island of Donnán", is named after Donnán of Eigg, a Celtic saint martyred in 617. Donnán is said to have established a church on the island, though no trace of this remains.
The castle was founded in the thirteenth century, and became a stronghold of the Clan Mackenzie and their allies the Clan Macrae. In the early eighteenth century, the Mackenzies' involvement in the Jacobite rebellions led in 1719 to the castle's destruction by government ships. Lieutenant-Colonel John Macrae-Gilstrap's twentieth-century reconstruction of the ruins produced the present buildings.

El Castillo de Eilean Donan es una fortaleza situada sobre la pequeña isla del mismo nombre que se alza a un lado del lago Duich, al noroeste de Escocia, el cual está comunicado a su vez con el cercano Océano Atlántico por medio del lago Alsh. Sólo es accesible en barco o a través de un estrecho puente de piedra que comunica la isla con la orilla del lago, por lo que en su día resultó ser una poderosa fortaleza muy difícil de tomar. La población más cercana es Kyle of Lochalsh, a menos de 8 millas de distancia y a unas 60 millas al oeste de Inverness.
El castillo actual comenzó a construirse en 1220 por orden de Alejandro II de Escocia sobre las ruinas de un antiguo fuerte usado por los pictos, como defensa frente a las incursiones vikingas. Se dice que fue uno de los refugios usados por Robert the Bruce cuando huía de las invasiones inglesas de Eduardo I. Posteriormente el castillo se convirtió en residencia del clan MacRae antes de quedar abandonado poco después de la unión entre Escocia e Inglaterra.
En 1719 fue ocupado por una expedición española que tenía como objetivo levantar militarmente a los escoceses contra la corona inglesa. Tras un mes de ocupación, tres fragatas inglesas penetraron en el lago Alsh y desde allí bombardearon masivamente la fortaleza hasta que las tropas españolas se rindieron y fueron hechas prisioneras. El castillo de Eilean Donan quedó entonces abandonado en estado de ruina hasta que John MacRae-Gilstrap lo restauró entre 1912 y 1932. Hoy es uno de los lugares más visitados por los turistas que cada verano acuden a Escocia y sigue siendo la residencia oficial del Clan McRae.
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?
Reynisfjara, Iceland.
This evening, the sea stacks at the Reynisfjara black beach got shrouded by surf’s mist. To make it even better, the sunset light reflected in a soft glow on the tidal lake behind the beach.

Cannon Beach Oregon
The tidal pools surrounding Haystack Rock are an excellent place to observe marine life during low tide.
Another day, another completely different look to my favorite pool in the rocks just above the high tide line. Kind of gloomy this time, but we can't be happy all the time, right?
To see the whole, varied collection of my photos of this ever-changing tidal pool, visit my album, That Protean Tidal Pool: www.flickr.com/photos/jerry-rockport/albums/7217772030227...
