Using a 400mm telephoto lens on my camera, I was able to pull these two brilliantly coloured boats in close, the view is from the town of Morecambe, looking across this beautiful bay towards the lakeland fells, the tide was in on this occasion, when its out you need to castch the bus to get to the sea, if that was possible.
There are guided walks across the bay at low tide, the place is treacherous due to the quicksands, out there, about twelve Chinese illeagal immigrants were drowned on these sands a couple of years ago when the tide, cut them off from the shore as they were gathering mussels.
If the tides and quicksand don't get you the mussels certainly will, as they glow in the dark, from the radiation from Heysham power station, and sellafield.
