Hm, there must be different tide tables out, Scrabster harbour is saying high tiede today at 10.05 and Magicseaweed is saying 9.46 at 5.28m (yesterday 9.01 at 5.22m) Yesterday it definately looked like the highest crashers were coming over bang on MS time...

Raven,

I normally use the Admiralty EasyTide site for tide times, they had HW at 10:02 and 5.2 Metres.

Fantastic set Raven as a kid we used to love going to Arbroath to watch the sea in a storm scary stuff !

Thanks for your nice comments everyone! NL, thanks for the link, very useful indeed!

Here are a few more from this morning. Out for the good part of an hour, could and salty, but still dry from the waves :-)

**Raven** · 13-Jan-09, 12:33

I saw North Light walking up on the pump station while shooting from the other side of the promenade, so I went over and said hello...
No blind chicken today, NL, eh? :-)

Raven,
And I behaved myself and didn't take any photo's of you!

Waves not as good as you caught yesterday, but I think the light might have been better.
Love the curve of the sea wall in number one, number 4 you've caught really well, wonderful texture in the water.
As for No. 6, would have been great, but who's the idiot who got in your way. :-)

I'll put some up later, trying to do the processing on a lap-top, not my preferred method!

So are you implying that I didnt behave myself??? Haha

Yep, the light was better.... before it started to rain

I thought it would not do too much and stuck it out...

I am looking forward to see your photos later on.

Raven,
Yes.
As for Blind Chicken, waves weren't good enough and I couldn't find my Water Wings before I came out!

Also from this morning.

Number two is fantastic (even with the drops) The longer shutter time suits it very well!

**North Light** · 13-Jan-09, 14:20

Thanks Raven, thats my favourite, there are more, but I'll sort through them later.

**Deemac** · 13-Jan-09, 14:23

NL, Raven, great series of images. I just don't have access during the day/morning as you do!! Well done. Thanks for sharing.

NL, Deemac is implying that we are lazy bones!!!!

Some grat photo's there Raven, can't wait for the next big onshore blow up to coincide with the tides being at the right time.

I think I'll forego the wetsuit though and stand well back.

nirofo.
