Spurn Point Lighthouse
Jan 3, 2013 12:35:08 #
Spurn Point (or Spurn Head as it is also known) is a narrow sand spit on the tip of the coast of the East Riding of Yorkshire, England that reaches into the North Sea and forms the north bank of the mouth of the Humber estuary.
It is over 3 miles (4.8 km) long, almost half the width of the estuary at that point, and as little as 50 yards (46 m) wide in places.
The southernmost tip is known as Spurn Head or Spurn Point and is the home to an RNLI lifeboat station and disused lighthouse.

Ahhhhhhhh a good monochromatic photograph, nice
You can feel the wind blowing through the grass over the dunes
Though I would have edited out the electric cables

JR1, why take away from a photo that, that is a true copy of what is there, if you do not like something that you see in the frame, dont take a photo, if you take something out of a photo it is no longer a true representation of the truth.

Excellent image of this lighthouse---I'm guessing this scene is all too common on Spurn Point! I like your composition and lighting! Thanks for sharing!
