The Longest Day

If you live in East Anglia and want to watch the sunset over the sea - then the closest vantage point is The Wash in Norfolk. Hunstanton has the added interest of the multicoloured chalk cliffs.

The perspective of this close-up of the beach is compressed by the telephoto lens. It gives a very graphical image with strong colours and shapes.

It is mid-Summer and the firey Sun eventually sets over Lincolnshire on the far side of The Wash at 9.20pm. But the Sun sets even later from June 22 to 28 - one minute at 9.21pm !
