Photographer's Note
Wells Next the Sea is a small town on the north Norfolk coast. Very popular holday resort but still a working harbour of fishing boats. My ancestors came from Wells and my great, great, great grandfather was a coastguard. Present day there is a coastal watch station. The people manning it told us that today most problems are caused by Sunday sailors and holiday makers.

Hello David, I remember Wells next the sea with fond memories; we had several springtime holidays there.
This shot looks great in the large version, we get a real sense of open space. The lovely beach stands out.
Nicely timed with the boat sailing by.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hello David,
This is a fantastic picture with the wood wall with iron columns.
The beach sea and boat make your picture interesting
Colours and presentation are superb.
Very well done, TFS.
Best regards,
John

Hello David,
This is a fine composition of a beautiful bit of the Norfolk shoreline. I like how you have added immediate visual interest with the groynes reaching out across two thirds of the frame. They are almost a perfect pointer to the pretty sailing boat, out on the horizon.
I was curious why there were no other photographs from this site, when I knew I had posted a few, one almost at this point! The answer is, we have added hyphens between the words in the name, so this appears like a new place. Problem solved!
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi David
A well composed almost minimalist photo with its 2 very different lines stretching out into the sea. The sailing boat is a bonus.
cheers
