I couldn&#8217;t even rely on aircraft vapour trails to provide any interest, plus the volcanic ash isn&#8217;t visible either! I was hoping to try and make an image with the last rays of sun highlighting the dunes only, turning them red\/orange. I got close to making an image?like that last year, but it still wasn&#8217;t quite right. Anyway, last Saturday it didn&#8217;t happen either as when the sun lowered towards the horizon, it seemed to lose all strength and the light went very flat and dull due to mist, cloud?or pollution on the horizon. It was difficult to tell which one it was. I did produce nice colours out to sea though.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-3600.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-834\" title=\"Sunset at Whiteford Sands, Gower Peninsula\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-3600.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset at Whiteford Sands, Gower Peninsula\" width=\"600\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-3600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-3600-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-3600-400x265.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Whiteford Burrows and Sands always allows lots of detail images to be made with?a wide range?of subjects present.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4541.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-836\" title=\"Pine Cone, Whiteford Burrows, Gower Peninsula\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4541.jpg\" alt=\"Pine Cone, Whiteford Burrows, Gower Peninsula\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4541.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4541-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4541-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Occasionally you get lucky as well. I had decided earlier not to get too close to the birds on the beach, but luckily they decided to fly relatively close to me instead. Luck does come into the following image as the wing positions are close to ideal on all the birds and there is a nice spacing between them as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4673.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-838\" title=\"Whimbrel in flight\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4673.jpg\" alt=\"Whimbrel in flight\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4673.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4673-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/tn_whiteford-point-4673-400x266.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All this clear blue sky is getting boring now &#8211; I want clouds back!
