Seahouses beach from St Aidan's dunes

This is from our holiday to Seahouses in August 2013. The beach is so photogenic and you get great photos in all weathers just from walking along the sands. On this occasion I'd climbed up into the dunes deliberately to get a shot from between the reeds for a change.

In Lightroom, I converted the raw file to black and white, used a graduated filter to bring the sky exposure down, then increased overall contrast and exposure slightly.
