Cross with Care! HFF!

Cross with Care!  HFF!
The Causeway - Weston Super Mare. As you can see the tide regularly makes crossing impossible so care needs to be taken.

It seems the sea level has risen a bit since the causeway was designed.

Ecobird club has replied to Ronald Losure club
Thank you very much Ronald. At high tide the causeway is covered. The Bristol Channel has the second greatest tidal range in the world so it is definitely a case of crossing at the right time to avoid wet feet!

As it is the Bristol Channel with the second greatest tidal range in the world, after the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, I presume it has to be off limits for much of the time!
HFF to you, Carol!

Ecobird club has replied to Andy Rodker club
Thank you very much Andy. Really appreciated. It is off limits to me the minute the water laps over the edge of the causeway!! Faint of heart I may be but never willingly wet of feet!! My apologies for the late response Andy. Happy New Year to you.

... fence posts running two directions, near and far; loopy chains carry the eye: all nice -- well seen and well done ...

... tall boots are needed for this hike ... HFF !!

HFF Carol !
Splendid scene of a high tide where the fence running on the foreground and then in perspective far away into the background enhance the transparent and apparently quietness of the water !
enjoy your weekend ahead !

Great composition, Carol. I love the way the fence crosses the frame in two directions. This leads the eye very effectively through the scene. HFF and a great weekend to you. Cheers, Joe
