River Exe Estuary

An impressive low tide. I remember that when I was 8 years old, in low tides like this, we caught crabs and clams and sold them together with my friends. With that money we went to the movies in a nearby town. Today shellfishing is absolutely prohibited

Yes, the tide goes out a very long way, but a lot of the estuary remains relatively shallow. There are a lot of sand bars. I don't know whether anyone catches shellfish there, but if they did, I certainly wouldn't risk eating it.

Thanks for commenting.

My fave is the PIP… love the close up on the sandy waves and the from low point of view.

I'm happy with that Isabel.........I couldn't make my mind up! Thanks very much.

Beautifully captured with a well chosen low pov !!

Thank you kindly young man!

Da ahst du sehr schön diese tiefe Perspektive gewählt lieber Keith,herrlich kommt so das gestrandete Boot rüber und auch diese Farbe des Sandes,das leicht goldig wirkt,ist richtig schön anzuschauen,auch diese Strukturen im Sande kommen in deinen schönen Aufnahmen toll rüber :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Sonntag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you as always for your very kind comments Güni. Enjoy your evening :-)

Thank you beverley, you're very kind.

I can see how this scene attracted you Keith, it's beautiful with such great shapes and textures. The green Devon hills in the background are lovely too. Two superb pictures. If I had to choose a favourite, I think it would be the PiP...but only just!

Sunday greetings and a good week ahead.

Thank you kindly Rosa...........I couldn't make up my mind between the two, so I posted both to save making a decision :-)). Glad you like them.

great low pov Keith, a beautiful image

Thank you Annemarie..........glad you approve.

in de pip is geweldig uitzicht met dat groene heuveltje in de voorgrond--ja het water zorgt steeds voor schitterende structuren in de zand keith mooie foto

Thank you very much Fred...........you're very kind as always.

Beautiful textures and a nice view, Keith !

Glad you think so Ulrich..........thank you.

A superb low level capture and terrific textures plus an interesting sky and a touch of mist for atmosphere, a pair of wonderful coastal images Keith

Thank you kindly sir...............I'm pleased you like these.

Sand undulations from this viewpoint is always good to see Keith. A very nicescene indeed and I think the PiP even better. Well done.

Wunderbar aufgenommen aus dieser tiefen Sichtachse!

Thank you Wilhelm............appreciated.

Une vue a marée basse ou un mirage dans le désert ? Peut être Keith n'avais tu pas emporté assez d'eau et tu as confondu le Sahara avec le Devon. Pense a remplir ta gourde la prochaine fois. amitié. Jean paul
