Sea Wall, pip

Sea Wall, pip
The Sea Wall as the sun sets, Bridgwater Bay at Burnham on Sea, Somerset, The pip shows South Esplanade which is along the top of the wall,

A wall of this size is needed because of the huge tidal range which is the second highest in the world, the steps are designed to take the power from waves before they hit the wall which is curved to throw the water back into the sea.

Wonderful perspective with lovely soft warm light and silver reflections from the sea and the wall structure. Very nice word Roger.

Lovely comments Doug, thank you,
It's man versus the sea and there can eventually be only one winner, just down the coast we have just lost an important local B road to coastal erosion.

An amazing civil project, building a structure such as this, and your image of it shows its strength, and beauty.
