    Default North East Coast sunrises

    If imageshack behaves for a change (it seems fond of losing my pictures for some reason), these are a few snaps I've taken over the last couple of years when its been too early to put the hifi on. I have bursts when I'm obsessed with taking photos and get almost competent then have a few months where I never pick up the camera and forget everything, which is what's happening right now.
    (And I'm a, erm, Klown with a Konica(-Minolta).)

    Berwick (the Berwick on the borders this time) harbour



    Lindisfarne Castle



    Bamburgh Castle seen from Lindisfarne



    "The Couple" sculpture, just north of Newcastle



    St Mary's Walkway, near Whitley Bay



    South Shields Groyne lighthouse



    Sunderland, Roker Pier




    Teesside



    Saltburn near Whitby

    Hi Spod

    Nice photo's. The Sunset looks like it is setting just about where I currently work. Saltburn is a couple of miles from my home.

    Cheers for the comments all. The trick is to get up ludicrously early on sunny days in winter, nature supplies the colours!

    A jet - in my twisted imagination I always think of it as a bomber flying away having caused the "explosion" below - but I am very, very twisted!

    A projector? I'm jealous - I've never seen them bigger than my screen! Must try hijacking a projector from work one day!
