Wheal Coates, just to the south of St Agnes Head, Cornwall, an area with many old tin and copper mines

Another bitterly cold East Coast winters day sheltering in the dunes at the top of Southwold beach. I don't know who the solitary figure is but he was the only person brave enough to be out on the freezing shore. I could see him from afar as I walked from the town down towards the harbour. He stood there, motionless, on the beach staring out to sea. He was still there in the same position when I moved on to find some warmth and comfort in the harbour Inn. Sad or thoughtful - who can tell.

This one is not one of mine, it was shot and processed by my eight year old daughter. She took it at Newquay Zoo, through glass.
