Seaford Head to Hope Gap Seascapes

The weather forecast was fog and thick cloud but decided to drag myself out of bed to get outside anyway. The plan was to start at Seaford Head in east Sussex then walk over the cliffs down to Cuckmere Haven and capture some seascapes.

Peacehaven Cliffs Seascapes

An early morning rise to visit the Peacehaven Cliffs in East Sussex. The weather forecast was overcast, windy, rain but with some occasional breaks of sunlight. This can make for some dramatic seascape photography.

Mary Stanford Boathouse Sunrise

As part of my series of returning to iconic landscape and seascape locations and capturing better and more dramatic compositions, a return visit to Rye on the east Sussex coast was next. The plan was for the Mary Stanford lighthouse to be the main focal point during a sunrise.

Hastings Red Dawn

Was planning a dawn seascape photography shoot at Rye, but too pushed for time. With fog forecast thought would take an early morning walk around Alexandra Park in Hastings. On the drive there, the sky was amazing! A red dawn, change of plan, had to head to the beach along Hastings seafront and attempt to capture those brilliant vibrant colours.

Hastings Seafront Sunrise

From studying various weather and tide apps, the conditions looked right for a morning sunrise shoot on Hastings seafront. With the tide revealing rocks in the foreground and the sun rising behind Hastings pier, should make a dramatic seascape composition.

Stone Hill Ashdown Forest

August has been a hot and lazy month. Too hot to get out hiking and landscape photography. Towards the end of August it did cool down with autumn coming. So broke the spell and rose early for a sunrise shoot at Stone Hill Ashdown Forest on the High Weald in East Sussex.

St Catherine’s Hill Winchester Hampshire

Another early morning rise, another McDonald’s, another sunrise on the Hampshire south downs.  This time,  I was heading for St Catherine’s hill which should have great views over Winchester Cathedral.

Hampshire South Downs Beacon Hill

Living in east Dorset I was not far from the border of Hampshire.  The south downs in the south east of England is one of my favourite places to walk and take landscape photos.  Today was going to be my first venture into the Hampshire part of the South Downs starting at Beacon Hill and making my way to Old Winchester Hill.
