What a difference a Day makes......only 24 Hours

I lie, I am afraid, 'tis not 24 hours, since I stood here, was 48.   I forgot about the egg rolling yesterday. 

Tonight I did see an exciting thing. 

I did head to the shore for a lovely sunny seaside shot - 1800 hours and the sun splitting the sky. 

I was initially disappointed because the kite surfers were directly in front of the path which meant I couldn't go to the water's edge.  So I sat on the log and watching and snapped them here and there...   Hoping the rain didn't get me.

And then as I uploaded one of my shots to instagram (other social media photo websites are available).... And as I watched, I became aware of the kite surfers yelling and waving. 

I looked up, and there... heading straight for the kite was a little plane - I can't tell you heights, cause I'm rubbish that way .. (but a friend in the know told me it was 500ft) ... I picked up my mobile cause that's what was in my hand and just pressed snapppppppp

now whilst the plane looks tiny in the photo, I can honestly tell you that it swerved off in that direction just in time.   

Such a close shave... wish I had the savvy to make it a video instead of the photo :-) 




If you can't make it out in the large photo - it's at 7pm to the sun :-)
