Blackpool Beach, Lancashire.
I've been making full use of my Lumix GX7 lately - although I've not quite figured out all the settings yet, but I am trying to get out and use it as much as I can. Just the other day I was informed of a blogger's competition called "Totally Beachin' Beaches" so I thought seeing that I live at the beach I'd give it a shot.
So here's my entry for the competition - Sadly it's been really gloomy where I live for a few days, so I didn't capture a nice sunset or a packed-out beach as I was hoping, but I've definitely captured something! I've lived by the seaside all of my life but I've only started to appreciated it over the past couple of years, nowadays I cycle down the promenade every week.
Shortly after I took this shot the heaven's opened. Faded seaside glamour? Maybe, but it's the place I call home. Wish me luck guys!

ReplyDeleteI actually love it a lot because it feels gloomy. It's great to look at things from an alternative point of view... We are so used to the sunny beaches, that the beauty of a cloudy beach day sounds just perfect.
ReplyDeletebeautiful!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck in the competition. This is such a gorgeous shot!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the pier & ferris wheel, we don't have that on our beaches around here - it seems very British? I've taken living by the coast for granted as well, I'm hoping for nice days this winter to cycle down often!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!!!Btw this is a beautiful photo
ReplyDeleteI wish we lived on a beach. We live on a lake beach... does it count? :-D Good luck, Mat!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful shot. I really miss living by the sea.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo! I actually entered into this as well although haven't seen that many other entries! Good luck to you, you can't beat Blackbool beach eh?
