Beach Huts

Beach Huts
I had a couple of hours walk along the beach at Hayling Island this morning while my wife was off having coffee with her friend. It was warm and breezy and very pleasant.

It's a bit early in the season for these beach huts to be used yet. There were quite a few people cleaning, painting and doing repairs though, for when summer eventually gets here.

This image is in 16/9 format, so probably best viewed large for detail.

Another image in the PiP, if you have time to look. Thank you.

They never seem the same out of season Keith. I bet these huts down here are priced similar to many full houses in the North West. Nice capture.

I actually like them out of season Herb...........all the imperfections, peeling paintwork etc; make for much more interesting photos.

I don't know the prices but I do know that they are ridiculously expensive and that there is a 10 year or so waiting list if you want to rent rather than buy!

I don't think they've ever lost their popularity down here Peter..........the waiting list to rent one is around 10 years, I believe.

If anything says British Seaside it's this superb capture Keith!
I like the variety and the colours, some of the upmarket resorts insist on uniformity which takes the character out of things.

Ha, ha..........I know what you mean Roger............Hayling Island remains stubbornly old-fashioned in that respect, which is fantastic.

Glad you like these two shots...........and thanks for your lovely comments.

Hütten für die Individualisten. Jeder zeigt seinen Geschmack, manch einer sehr künstlerisch. Eine sehr schöne Strandimpression, Keith.

You have chosen the format well and viewing large is a joy. I love the colourful beach huts, they remind of summer, sea and icecream:-)

I love the array of colours on the huts. Do people stay in them or just use them to change clothes for swimming? I would agree with the sentiment of the note on the blue door.

Keith Burton club has replied to Eunice Perkins club
They are quite lovely aren't they............glad you like them Eunice.

You're not allowed to stay overnight in the huts........but people normally spend the entire day there.........most will have basic cooking facilities and comfortable seating etc. There are toilets and water taps nearby. A lot of people use them all year round..!!

Jede Hütte ist vermutlich so individuell wie sein Besitzer.
Eine schön gestaltete Aufnahme! Der Blick fällt zuerst auf die Hütte mit dem aufgemalten Bild.

Keith Burton club has replied to trester88 club
You're quite correct Wilhelm.........most huts are decorating inside very nicely and to each owners own tastes.

Glad you like the photos..........and thanks for your nice comments.
