Christmas Day dawned fair – a long-awaited break in the weather brought a day of blue skies, sunshine, and very little wind. Perfect for our picnic walk, though the tide times were anything but perfect.
High tide was due around 4pm, when it would be dark. We took a chance and headed out around midday, thinking that the tide might be low enough…
Set of photographs of the dogs at the beach on Dec 25th, 2008. The deep/dark colours are due to my forgetting that I had a polariser fitted. In most cases, I don’t mind at all. There’s something deep and rich and lovely about these images – they remind me in some ways of oil paintings… like they already have the patina of age, somehow – just vague memories already.
