I've been seeing shots of the wreck here many many times on Flickr and they are all pretty excellent. It's a really nice shot when you get it right. Lately Scott Masterton had been posting some crackers from this place and it made me want to go. Worse, the night he took these shots I was going to go to this exact spot but the weather looked ropey and I didn't bother... kicking myself or what?!
Anyway, the Peco & Peel Touring Photography Circus decided to scout this place out. I checked some tide times vs capture date/times and found that we might actually be pushing it to get there before the tide came too far in and covered the wreck.
Prescient of me! :(

As always, Ross and I have been talking about heading out for a wee trip for some time. Talking you understand. Ross "can't" Scott is sometimes difficult to pin down to get an nice evenings shooting done. To be fair I've not exactly been uber motivated myself, spending most of my time developing my content management system for my business.
In this wee outing I got a wee bonus in that we headed out early. With a full 6 hours of shooting ahead of us, we where both well excited - it's always the little things :) The plan was to dot about various places but end up at the X Class submarine wreck out at Aberlady Bay.

This time, Ross and I took a trip to Yellowcraigs just outside Dirleton in East Lothian. The plan was to get a nice seascape of Fidra. You know what they say about plans!

I was out a week or so before this trip, almost the first time this year, to do some images for a tutorial I'm writing on how to use the very excellent Image Averaging technique I saw mentioned on Flickr.
