Sunset, Cromer, Norfolk Photo

Photographer’s Note

Now that we live in the UK (Midlands), we have taken the opportunity to take long weekends to travel. This most recent weekend we traveled to Norfolk to visit some beaches, castles, and other places. Cromer is a nice seaside town where we spent part of a day. We were there, on the beach, with friends as the sun was setting. The clouds made the sky dramatic and the "Golden Hour" lighting was great. [Minor tweaks and cropping in Jasc AfterShot]

I would log out when your photo appeared and I had to click on the thumbnail...

Great composition & nice framing. Such great soft cool colours on water & sky but perfect warm light on the building! It just looks like air-brush work, I like it very much!

The magic light of the golden hour is almost like a painting here. It looks like a postcard promoting the pier. The light blue sky in the top right is a definite plus, allowing the clouds and pavilion to take a breath from waves.

It's a shame you didn't catch the RNLI lifeboat being launched! - A whole section at the end on the left tilts up and the lifeboat makes its way down the slipway.

overall: good effort

went to Cromer for the first time this week - the pier is just right - not overly comercialised - The Basil Brush Show was on in the theatre - this picture was probably taken just before the refit - glad to say that they have kept the spirit and the building very 'English Seaside' as I said - just right!
