Brighton, Dusk

The last of the dusk’s murmuration before the starlings all dove beneath the pier to roost.

Christmas in Brighton and Hove

Jumping in the English Channel on Christmas day is a thing here in Brighton. Today the temperature was hovering a little above 0°C (mid 30s °F) with a windchill about 6° (10°F) lower. We joined the Brighton Ramblers for a walk from the Brighton Palace Pier to the Hove Lagoon and the place was packed. Below, just some of the sights we saw (click into the gallery to see explanatory captions).

Some Views from Hove Beach

The light in the clouds on the right, above, is not the sun, but a bit of a solar halo (see last post) – the sun is off to the left, just out of shot.

Another Angle

Hard to see this and not want to take just one more picture in slightly different light…

Worthing

Beach Ferris Wheel

Back in April we took the bus west to Worthing. Inadvertently, I had switched my camera to record on chip 2 rather than the usual chip 1 and somehow never noticed it nor missed my Worthing pictures, and they remained there, on chip 2 in the camera until I recently rediscovered them. For the next few days, then, I’ll be posting pictures from that day trip.
