Magnique... Un superbe moment saisi et mémorisé.. Happy sunday.

Thank you for the nice comments Malik

Beautiful light and a very nice view, Roger !

Generous comments Ulrich, Thank you.

Peaceful spot for an improvised picnic.

Thank you Leopold, a popular place under normal conitions

Lovely evening light...........especially where it's reflected on the water and some nice movement in the waves. The steps make great leading lines.

I hadn't realised that Burnham on Sea had two lighthouses, as you normally only see photos of the one in the PiP - perhaps because it's so unusual.

Very nicely captured Roger..!!

Thank you for the kind comments Keith, The land based lighthouse has been decommissioned and is now a private house although the beach lighthouse still provides a service to mariners.

Ah, that would explain it! Thank you.

A lovely scene and beautiful sunset light, Roger.

Thank you George, one of our home beaches

Well captured...

Thank you Udo

Beautiful light, Roger!

Thank you Annalia, mid summer light.

Une belle image dans la lumière descendante qui apporte un peu sérénité !***************

Thank you Joceyne, I love a warm midsummer evening on the coast.

Very kind William, thank you,

Superbes photo , vue et lumière. Nicole.

Really appreciated Nicole, thank you.

Very kind Claudia, thank you.

Nice warm glow Roger, I bet there were a few more visitors there the following day.

Probably Maurice, we make a point of staying away during the day for safety reasons.
Did you get to Welney?

Superb!
I once went to Burnham-On-Sea (from London) on business to meet some clients who had just moved there (from Bridgwater). This was before internet and mobile phone days. I couldn't find the address I had been given and nor could I contact them by phone. Very annoyed, I went home. I found an ansafone message waiting for me, frustrated clients were very annoyed with me. They had been waiting for me all day.
It transpires (I think you may be ahead of the tale here, Roger!), that they had moved to Burnham-on-Crouch, Kent!
I lost a day's business but, worse, I lost some potentially valuable clients. 32 years on and a lifetime away, it still rankles! :o(
Moral of the tale? Assumptions are dangerous. Check all facts first!

Thank you Andy, goodness that's a long way from Bridgwater on a similar note I was sent to a shout to Cannington and couldn't find the vehicle after much searching I called it back and found the call handler had misheard and it was Kanning town in London.,

In the end we just have to put it down to experience and shrug it off! (I think that after 32 years I can just about bring myself to do so!).

Strange how things stay in the memory for years but ask me where I put my glasses 5 minutes ago and I will have no idea.

Tell me about it, Roger!!!!

Une plage aménagée en gradin pour mieux la protéger, c'est une bonne idée et c'est la première fois que je vois cela !
La lumière tardive ou matinale est très agréable et votre composition est parfaite avec ce couple qui contemple le spectacle ! J'adore ce phare en PIP !
Passez une agréable semaine, Roger !

Thank you Henri, the steps are design to reduce the power of the waves before they hit the main sea defences, the huge tidal range and the Atlantic Ocean can be a powerful foe.

Beautifully composed seascape; lovely warm light and colours.

Thank you Jaap.

Someone is enjoying the moment ... (:o))
Very beautiful picture, Roger !

Thank you Christiane, lovely to watch the tide come in on a warm summer evening.

A beautiful light Roger and a lovely candid moment with the two young people enjoying the scene. A good title too :-))

Thank you Rosa, not as sharp as it could have been but the light was fading and I omitted to change the settings

I love the dynamism of the waves breaking on the walkway, Roger. All the best, Joe

Thanks Joe, a lovely summer evening tide.

Hi Roger

A very nice picture, a wonderful composition!

I've come across a few places using two lighthouses working in this way, Perhaps not so unusual.

Best Wishes, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!
Peter

Thank you for the nice comments Peter, unusual in this part of the world I suspect

a nice splash and I like the PiP too
