Seacliff Path Frame - North Berwick

Seacliff Path Frame - 1/20s, ISO100, 24mm @f/11

 

This is the path down to a small hidden gem for anyone visiting the North Berwick area. with it’s beautiful golden sand beach, bright red sandstone cliffs and amazing views over to Bass Rock and Tantillon Castle just round the corner as well as a small hidden harbour for local fishing boats carved into the sandstone rocks this is a beautiful little beach to just walk, explore and take photos.

This beach was suggested to us one night while taking photos of the Belhaven Bridge (Bridge to Nowhere) during an aurora storm by some local photographers. it took us a little while to find and when we got there we seen that parking was metered, but it was worth the parking fee just to be able to get out and scout this place for the next time I’m in the area. it’s definitely a must see location when in the area.

(I’ll leave a list of some equipment that I used with links if anyone’s looking for inspiration or for a starting point for their own mountain photography shopping list)
