246/365v2 Waiting For The Tide

Weird light at lunchtime today as I dashed down to Lower Holbrook and took a quick march around the bay. I liked how (almost) all the boats were apparently itching to set sale into the River at any moment.

232/365v2 The 13.31 For Norwich

I’ve heard regular trains rushing past somewhere nearby since I started work here a month or so ago. I had no idea where the rail track was. I took a walk at lunchtime across to a bridge I drive over every morning expecting to find the River Stour…so I was

224/365v2 The Swans of Mistley

Back to work after my short break and I popped across the River Stour to Mistley which is adjacent to Manningtree. I had no idea there were so many swans here – in this picture you can only see a tiny fraction of the swans that are in the area…literally

216/365v2 The River Stour at Flatford Mill

I think I probably now hold the record for the quickest visit to Flatford Mill – a very quick 10 minutes at lunchtime saw me dash in, grab a few shots and dash back out again, much to the bemusement of the lady on the gate. From my very quick

206/365v2 Last One…

203/365v2 The Best View

I finally found my way down onto the river bank/shoreline of the River Stour in Suffolk today. I had a failed attempt at finding this last week…you’d have thought it would be straight forward really – a big expanse of water…Anyhow, the tide was out and it looked…frankly…awful – this

197/365v2 Golden Barley

Another shot from Brantham, the village I now work from. I carried on down the farmers track towards the River Stour – I was hoping I could get onto the coastline, alas, whilst I could get within about 800yds there was no obvious way through and I needed to head

169/365v2 Holbrook Bay

A second job interview found me mooching around the Suffolk coast again this afternoon. This is a shot taken on the edge of the River Stour in an area called Holbrook Bay. I was hoping to get some long exposure shots…but those clouds weren’t moving…at all!
