Well for once a glorious bright frosty morning coincided with being off work. I don’t know about you lot but I get really cheesed off with the grim UK weather sometimes at this time of year, today I thought ‘yes, big score!’ So what did I do? Went and found a dark frosty place to take a photo! Although I did actually get some good shots (for me) in good light today I took a shine to this one.

Many thanks........
Hi Phil, yes it was down at the helipad. I was actually trying to sneak up to a Kingfisher that was fishing in the rock pools just out from that small tower. Unfortunatley after taking a couple of shots at long range I tried to get closer but disturbed some Oyster Catchers I hadn't seen and he flew off. When I turned back I looked at the banked section of the wall and thought it was an interesting angle especially with the frost to set it off.
