Moment to shine by Mark J P

The Olympic torch came through Bournemouth today.  It was very difficult to get a decent shot as there were so many people watching but I managed to get a couple of shots to remember the occasion.

Pink sky at night by Mark J P

It actually stopped raining today and there was a pink sky as the sun was setting.  This has to be a good sign surely? Could summer finally be on the way.. I’m doubtful.

This is one of the rides from the children’s fun fair currently on Bournemouth Pier, Dorset, UK.  It seemed so strange and unusual… I just had to take a photo!

Sun drenched days and starlit nights by Mark J P

This evening at 8:30pm as the sun was setting over a rather foggy Bournemouth Beach it was still 24°C and people were still on the sand and enjoying the water. I absolutely love the summer.  Shot in Bournemouth, Dorset, UK.

Another shot from Classic Cars On The Prom on Bournemouth Beach, Dorset, UK. I love vintage cars, especially US cars as we don’t get to see too many of them in the UK.

This shot makes me think of drive through movies in the 60s!
