1. Love this shot Jude! It’s often like this over on our Headland. And we seem to have our share of water coming down from the sky this morning too. C’est la vie😃😃

   1. We finally have an English summer!!!

      1. Thanks for that Becky ☺

         1. hee hee . . well wouldn’t be right if we didn’t have it!

      2. Because it is the school holidays!!

         1. It is odd how this happens every year isn’t it!

         2. August has been a crap month for years!

         3. It needs to brighten up by Thursday, have plans for Thursday!!!

         4. I shall keep my fingers crossed for you!

   2. Water in the water garden! Rained when we visited too, but not too much. I hope you manage to get some photos, the garden at the top of the water cascade is fabulous.

      1. Poured this morning but we did the castle -a first for me and fabulous. Just drizzly by the time we got to the gardens. The roses have taken a battering but it’s a lovely place. Foggy now with a bit of watery sunshine. Tired feet time xx

         1. It turned out better here than was forecast, some showers, but quite humid and warm. You home tonight or staying until morning?

         2. Staying. We planned to go further up the coast tomorrow but the forecast is poor. Never mind, we’ll have a nice meal here tonight then totter up the stairs. Nice old fashioned pub 😃😃

         3. I got some lovely photos of St Abbs in the fog, you never know what you might find if you go a bit further. Pop over to Lindisfarne? Safe to cross between 09:05 until 14:30

         4. Probably not. Alnmouth then Craster/Dunstanburgh but it’s forecast heavy showers and thunderstorms. Photos sound great xx

         5. Craster crab sarnies! Whoo hoo! Lightning photos! Stormy seas…

         6. Love ya! Probably just the wine talking. How am I going to watch Rafa? X

         7. Rafa? You are supposed to be celebrating your wedding anni woman!

         8. I did! But….😞

         9. He won! 🙂 🙂

         10. And a man with gout who had to be left behind while I legged it to try and beat the rain. 🙂 🙂

         11. Oh dear, poor Mick. Not the best of weekends for him it seems. Gout is very painful so I understand. My mother and my cousin suffer(ed) from it.

         12. Life certainly having its ups and downs right now. 😦 He did eat well though 🙂

2. Not sure how long ago you took this, but the B&W gives it a timeless feel. It might have been yesterday, or 25 years ago. 🙂
   Best wishes, Pete. x

   1. Spring I think Pete, I don’t get into St Ives much at the moment. The colours were very dull anyway so it seemed a good idea to convert to the black and white.

3. You caught that just at the right moment! 🙂

   1. Several tries!

      1. Whatever it takes! 😉

4. I hope you didn’t get too wet!

   1. Not at all, I went via the road!

      1. Wise decision! 🙂

5. With stronger storm the water knocks at the windows, I guess..

   1. Mmm… I wouldn’t like to live too close to the sea. Those storms can cause havoc.

6. What a great capture for this challenge, Jude! Stay dry. 🙂

   1. You won’t get me anywhere near this spot for another month Cathy.

7. Looks like it was a pretty wild and windy day! Great shot, Jude.

   1. Just a normal high tide Carol!

8. I’ll bet you were startled. Hope you didn’t get wet. It’s a great dramatic shot in B/W.

   1. Thanks LD

9. I certainly wouldn’t get to close to that high water, winter I assume?

   1. Spring!

10. Nice image! Thanks so much for submitting to the Wits End weekly challenge. I’d very much like to feature your photo on PhotoYoga http://www.photo-yoga.com if that’s all right. I’ll give you full credit of course!

    1. Thanks Jenn, I’d be happy for you to use the image.
