Photo of the Day 2016 – 3 September: Southwold Pier

Another shot from my recent photographic excursion to Suffolk, this time of Southwold Pier at dawn.  This was taken just before the sun rose above the horizon, after which the colour in the sky rapidly disappeared.  The exposure of the sky at top left was held back with a Lee 0.6 soft graduated filter.

This is part of my occasional “Photo of the Day” series when I publish any shots which I think might be of interest and tell the story behind them.  They might not necessarily be portfolio standard images, nor the final version, but still be of sufficient interest for inclusion in my blog.  If I do not show a shot on any given day, it does not mean that I did not take any photographs, just that I did not get anything worthwhile.  For me, that is part of the fun of photography, not knowing what you will find on a shoot when nothing is planned.
