The Spurn Lights & Bridlington

The Spurn Lights, originally uploaded by KingKobra.

Headed out for the day today, to two places I've never been before. Spurn Point and Bridlington. We also stopped off at the Humber Bridge to get a few snaps of that on the way past.

It was a bit grey to start off with, but the cloud soon burned away to give a great sky for photography. Blue with some nice wispy clouds.

The drive down to Spurn Point was an adventure in itself as the single track road meanders down the spit of land that is sometimes only about 20 feet wide with sea on both sides.

It was pretty warm by the time we arrive, just after lunchtime but not many people there and luckily no-one had disturbed the sand out my the low light, so I managed to get several shots of the lighthouses without worring about having to clone out footprints, although I did get my feet wet.

Stayed on the point for a couple of hours before heading out to Bridlington. It wasn't planned, but I saw it wasn't that far away, so we headed there just to scope it out. First things first though when we got there. I spotted the yellow M of McDonalds, and I hadn't brought any food with me, so I got those priorities straightened out.

Had a wander down the harbour for an hour, and determined it was somewhere to come again one day for a little longer as we only put an hour on the car. I got a cool picture of a seagull, with flamborough head in the background, but of course something had to be amiss, and this time it was the seagulls feet. Another one for the bin.
