It's Not Just The Tide To Watch Out For

When shooting at St Margarets Bay, there is a sign just past the houses that tells you to take caution from falling rocks and the danger of being cut off by high tide.

Having seen how quickly the tide comes in and see it cut off the access steps, it is a definate must to check the time tables before going and rule out my favourite part of beach at high tide.

The news this week highlights just how true the other part of the sign is

The second large fall in a week and definately not something you'd want to be under at the time.  I have seen the changing face of the Bay after visiting after a fall 3 years ago in January 2008

Fortunately the spots where I take photos are a good distance from the cliffs and hopefully this natural erosion will give way to see new and interesting rock formations around the bay, but it's not just the waves and tide I need to watch out for anymore!
