Moonrise, Snook Point, High Newton by the Sea, Northumberland, England

16th November 2005

I’ve always wanted to try this milky sea effect from a really, really long exposure during the night. It turned out to be a really scary experience. The tide had just turned and was going out, but the waves were still crashing over the rocks, and me! The rock was really slippery and it was really dark so I couldn’t see a thing. Great combination for a scary trip back to dry land.
