So the last day before I go back to work, the New Year’s Bank Holiday, we decide to go to the beach for the day.<\/p>\n

Actually, we managed about 45 minutes on North Berwick beach itself before the kids got too cold. And with everything shut for the bank holiday, we didn’t even get to take refuge in any warm place but the car. Martin did a bunch of photography with the big cool camera while Alex threw rocks in the water and Fiona walked around exploring the sandy world. (There was also a certain amount of climbing on rocks, running about and shrieking, and generalised beach fun.)<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, I did see a couple of things that just needed<\/em> photographing, and as usual, the camera phone came through!<\/p>\n

Rock and seaweed<\/p>\n

Roseate seaweed<\/p>\n

Rocks and sea glass. (I am particularly fond of sea glass, for long complicated reasons.)<\/p>\n

I love the dark trails in the sand under this bit of seaweed.<\/p>\n

Yeah, yeah, more seaweed. But I like it.<\/p>\n

I did a bit of colour messing with this shot – but only a tiny bit. I love the textures, but I know I may be alone in that.<\/p>\n

This is the prize shot. I tried it with the big fancy camera, but actually, this one from the phonecam is the best<\/em> of the day. In my opinion.<\/p>\n
