19 August 2010 - Hauxley Beach, Northumberland.
This afternoon we visited Hauxley for a walk along the beach, starting from the north end of Druridge Bay. It was cloudy but there were some bright sunny intervals and blue sky from time to time.
In the first two photos below, looking south, the sun was shining between the clouds, making the beach appear bright while the sky was very dark and dramatic. The next two photos show a very different picture looking north where the sky was much clearer.
The fifth photo is a view across to Coquet Island and the last photo is a view towards Amble and beyond.
12 August 2010 - Amble, Northumberland.
This evening we visited Amble to take some new photos for our Northumberland photo website. Later we stopped at Hauxley to take some more views from the dunes.
The first photo below is a view of fishing cobles moored in the harbour at Amble, where visitors were sitting outside eating fish and chips at the picnic benches.
The next two photos are views of fishing boats moored at the quayside, followed by a view of one of the boats returning from sea.
In the fifth photo some dark clouds were hovering near Coquet Island where the lighthouse was gleaming in the low evening sun. The last photo is a view looking south over the cottages at Hauxley.
07 August 2010 - Mitford, near Morpeth, Northumberland.
This afternoon we visited Mitford to take a few photos on what was forecast as a fine day, but wasn't.
The first two photos below are from the remains of the weir between Morpeth and Mitford where a Heron was waiting patiently for passing fish. The next photo was taken just downstream where a ram with a fine set of horns was resting quietly in a field beside the river.
The last two photos are views of St. Mary Magdalene Church and Mitford Castle.
27 July 2010 - Bothal, near Morpeth, Northumberland.
This evening we walked to Bothal to take some photos for our Northumberland photo website. Some of the fields were being harvested, adding different colours to the ever changing farmland around Bothal.
The first photo below is a view of fields beside Bothal Woods being harvested. The second two photos are views taken along the path to Bothal Village through fields that had already been harvested.
The third photo is a view of Bothal Castle and the last two photos are views across the fields in the valley near Bothal Village.
