Images from the East coast

The following are images taken on a day visit to Whitby on the east coast of England, the light on that particular day was in my opinion fantastic, the sun had come out after rain in the morning and it gave that particular quality of light that more than often is missed by many photographers but as luck would have it on this day I did have a camera. I particularly love the contrast between the dark threatening sky and the sun bouncing off of the sand in some of them, what do you think ?




Whitby's skyline is dominated by the ruins of St. Hilda's Abbey, high on Whitby's East Cliff. Spreading below Whitby, a maze of alleyways and narrow streets run down to the busy quayside.
From the old town of Whitby, 199 steps lead up to the parish church of St. Mary, whose churchyard on Whitby's East Cliff gave Bram Stoker the inspiration to write his world famous book, Dracula
