Weekend away, 1st in a long time.
Silhouette of Bamburgh castle against an orange sunset. Dawn over Seahouses harbour. Low sunlight illuminates bands of cloud from below. Large expanse of sandy beach, Bamburgh castle on the skyline. Holy Island, Lindisfarne, harbour viewed from the path to the castle. A stony, shingle beach in the foreground. The harbour & bay lies beyond.
