The first "stick" that we found on the causeway. It was so cold and the wind was blowing so hard that trying to hold the camera still was rather a challenge.
A close up of the padlock on one of the boat sheds. I love these upturned boats that are used for storing fishing paraphenalia. They are all weathered and the colours and layers of metal and paint are endessly fascinating to me - I always feel there is a better picture to be taken or painted just around the corner. 
Here is the roof of one of these upturned boats. The patches and layering reminded me of Anselm Kiefer and how his work is taken back and layered again and again.
A Mother and Child picture here. Would love to work this up into a companion piece to go with Mrs Trogg and Baby that I based on the bargaining stones on the North York Moors (I must also get round to photographing the finished piece rather than this latest work in progress).
Mrs Trogg and Baby. Part of last years Final Major Project at Craven College..
Here are the "sticks" that Jack and I went to photograph. I have to say my pictures were pretty dismal. By this time I was frozen and wet and the wind was still blowing very hard indeed. Perhaps if I still had any feeling left in my fingers I might have been able to hold the camera and manipulate the controls a bit better.
I just love the delicacy of this seaweed as well as the colour contrast against the stone.
More sticks on the causeway. Very "Land Art" It almost feels as though there should be mirrors fixed between the poles to reflect the sea back onto the landscape.
Just fell in love with them. 
Moved onto Bamburgh and the sea defences. Couldn't resist snapping the dice. Something to make you smile.
