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.

Jellyfish by Mark J P

This was more than enough to keep me out of the ocean but a little further down the beach there seemed to be plenty of people more than happy to ignore the warnings and enjoy the warm water. Crazy!

These Hawaiian Green Turtles come to Laniakea Beach to bask in the sun.  It’s quite incredible to be able to get so close to them. An amazing sight. Shot on Laniakea Beach, Oahu, Hawaii.

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.

A shot taken on Knoll Beach in Swanage, Dorset, UK.  You can barely make them out but those are in fact Old Harry Rocks in the background.

World's largest deckchair by Mark J P

This may look like some form of photoshop, but it is apparentlythe world’s largest deckchair and can currently be seen on Bournemouth beach. It’s over eight meters high and for the next two days will be on Bournemouth beach to mark the start of the summer.

Commissioned by Pimms and created by sculptor Stuart Murdoch, I had to pop down this evening to take a look for myself and it’s even more impressive in person and well worth visiting if you have a chance before it goes!

Some more info about it here.
