High tide at sunset

Tonight at 8 o'clock, the tide reached an equinoctial high at 5.5 metres / 18 feet. It is also a perfectly calm evening, with no wind. The wind gauge near the Coast Guard Station was still, not often seen. The sun set at around 7.10, but I had enough light to take the above pictures between 7.30 and 7.45.

  5. Pictures 1,3,6 are perfect postcard pictures. I would buy an enlargement of these any day they are so good.  It still looks too cold to go out for a walk in it without my thermals though.....lol!
