A Monochrome Sea

The British Sovereign has an Official Birthday in order to conduct the Trooping the Colour at a suitable time of year. Our family: or at least the London and Spanish branches and us, had an Official Christmas at a suitable time in December: and we went to West Sussex together. Here was the winter seaside. A couple of these shots are natural monochromes because – well – the weather was naturally monochrome.

And that herring gull I showed the other day seemed to attract a few fans – as a bit of an anti-hero, I guess. So here he is again, on sentry duty.

For Leanne’s Monochrome Madness.

PS. I’m knocking off for a while. Family in Spain calling. I might send the odd postcard.

(Leanne – your site has taken against me. It won’t let me leave a comment. So I hope the pingback works.)

    1. I should have said. Littlehampton. We’d planned a morning in Arundel, but it was log-jammed because of a special market, and we couldn’t get anywhere near town, so fled to the nearest seaside.

      2. Likewise. Husband Number 1 and nearly moved there to be between our two jobs. £6, 500 was the going rate for houses then. But it didn’t happen.
