Norfolk coast

I thought it might be nice to place this blog in some sort of context. Much of my photography is done in North Norfolk and I think this image – taken during December 2010's heavy snowfalls – illustrates why it's a privilege to live here. Mile after mile of unspoilt coastline, the huge skies, the magical light (when it's not interminably grey), the special allure of the saltmarshes and countless well-run nature reserves combine to make it the perfect place in which to indulge my passion (read obsession).

  1. Hi Tim. I'm not at all jealous ... much!!
    This scene says it all and why I love to visit this favourite piece of coast whenever possible.

    Thanks for joining 'The Early Birder' and hope you enjoy images from a land-locked county.

  2. Hi Tim - this shot is stunning! I was trying to work out where it was - is this Burnham Norton by any chance?

    Best Wishes Penny

  3. Hi Penny – it does look like Burnham Norton, doesn't it, but it's actually Salthouse, just up the coast (going east) from Cley.
