Description: The city of Valletta is full of imposing buildings and is often described as an outdoor museum, but it also has more than its fair share of quirky little side streets and surprising buildings. This image shows a narrow street running towards Marsamxett harbour from Republic Street and is full of interesting shops including The Economical Shoe Store.
Description: The view from the end of the promenade at Blyth beach in Northumberland, looking south towards Seaton Sluice and St Mary's Island on a blustery August morning. The wind was starting to whip up the sea but it was also moving along the clouds and revealing patches of blue in the sky.
Description: St Mary's Lighthouse and island lie north of the River Tyne and Whitley Bay on the North Sea coast of England. The lighthouse is no longer in operation and is now a museum and tourist attraction which is only accessible at low tide when the causeway is not under water. This image has been given a swirl effect filter to give am artistic feel to the scene and it is also available without the filter.
Description: The pretty fishing village of Marsaxlokk is situated in the South East of Malta and is well known for its harbour full of colourful Luzzu fishing boats and larger vessels. The harbour area also hosts a weekly Sunday market where all manner of household goods are on sale as well as the locally caught fresh fish. This image was photographed on a sunny, bustling October Sunday morning.
Description: November sunrise at the mouth of the River Blyth in Northumberland on the North East coast of England. The image was taken from the old Wooden Pier which together with Cambois Pier and its lighthouse, guard the river mouth. The sun seems to be rising between the piers under a threatening sky and casting the fog horn into silhouette. There is also a lady walking towards the end of the pier with her two dogs enjoying the spectacle.
