Milky Way Priests Way Swanage.
Milky Way Priests Way Swanage. Nights drawing in makes it easier on a clear night to photograph the milky way while it is visible. The only real challenge is not to capture the flashing lights of a planes because of the many flights from the UK airports. This capture during an evening walk along the Priests Way near Swanage in Dorset.

Sunset Old Harry. A capture of the setting sun dipping down behind Old Harry Rocks. Taken from on-board Swanage lifeboat.
Wednesdays lifeboat exercise took place in the Studland Bay area. The exercise saw Poole volunteer lifeboat crew join us with both of their boats to practice a multi vessel search of the sea area from Old Harry Rocks to the Studland Bay chain ferry. We were heading back to our station passed Old Harry Rocks when the sun was setting. A special treat at the end of a great lifeboat exercise to see an Old Harry Sunset with the sun dipping between the rocks.

Swanage Old Pier Sunset. Not having the car meant leaving work and having to walk the short distance to lifeboat station for the weekly exercise.
The pinks and creamy oranges were glowing across the skyline and this was a great opportunity to take some pictures. This was just one of the stunning sunsets we were have in Swanage. Before I could take more my pager sounded so had to pack up the kit and jog to station. Its only then that you realise how heavy a tripod and camera bag can be.
The Swanage old pier is centre stage in so many photographs. Always a pleasure to be able to photograph the old Swanage pier at short notice.
The old Swanage pier is set to the (south east) right of the current main pier. Just find the seafront in Swanage and look left and you will see the pier. There is a small charge to stroll on the pier. The Swanage old pier is best photographed late autumn and through winter till spring as Divers Down have pontoons in the water near it during the summer months.
