SEATON SANDS 18 FEB 2021 and a painting of Saltburn.

Beach Buoy and Stubborn Dog reached the car park at 3-50pm.

The car park was as busy as if it were a Sunday afternoon in late April.

It was bright.

It was windy from the west.

As they headed for the water's edge the last few degrees of a rainbow faded on the horizon.

Southwards.

There were quite a few people around, though the photograph may not show this fact.


They walked the water's edge as the wind blew and blew... two hoods were raised.

Two bands of rain seemed to meet out in the bay, ready to do battle?

It looked odd, the rain seemed to be falling at equal but opposing angles, like a mirrored version of  each.

At least the sea cannot become any wetter than it already is.


They stacked the stack.

All was good.

It was even more windy up on the more exposed dunes.

They ambled back.

A man was upon ahead, with his Alsatian.

The large dog carried his toy:a burst football.

The clouds were flying by, making it look like the sun was scanning the beach like a barcode reader.

Waves of sea rolled in as waves of light travelled the length of the beach.



The tide was trying to come back in.

The wind had other ideas, whipping the tops of any curling wave as it tried to break.

The village looked lovely.

They headed back to the van.....


Below is a painting of Saltburn

Beach Buoy can see Saltburn from Seaton Sands.

This part of Saltburn always seem to catch the late summer evening sun, looking so inviting.

Below are two of  Beach Buoy's Saltburn photographs from earlier visits.

The first is poor quality; poor light management but the driftwood plank across the nearby beck's flow was good to see.





The second photograph was taken on the beach.
A metal cover in a concrete structure.
Beach Buoy was attracted to the colour of the rusty water, caught in the divisions of the covers design.
