Along the sea front in Aberavon, South Wales

[itsnotmeyouknow]

The weather hasn't been fantastic in my part of Wales but we have been spared (touches wood) the severe flooding that other parts of the country have suffered.

I took a stroll down to the beach with my camera and my new CZ 35mm lens to put it through its paces out and about:

Looking towards the harbour across the sand:

Looking over the sea defences into the Bristol Channel:

Along the front there are a few art sculptures funded by local government. I call this one, The Squiggle

On my way back I walked along the sand and caught site of someone's sand drawing of a plane

The last picture made me smile. The others will be there tomorrow, the plane in the sand will be gone when the next tide rolls in.

Very true!
