I took some pictures this morning along the Thames Estuary starting at Shoeburyness and working back the 7 miles or so towards Hadleigh, they are not great photos more just snapshots, it was very hazy this morning, but they maybe of interest to some of you

starting at Shoebury looking out to sea






Looking towards Southend




Beach huts at Thorpe bay


Southend Pier, the world longest pleasure pier




Royal Terrace Southend


with Queen Victoria looking out to sea


Leigh Old town, where I spent a lot of my youth








Looking to towards the 13th Century Hadleigh Castle, the Olympic mountain bike course is just behind the castle



Southend Pier again from Leigh this time, the Kent coast in the distance



It's a dogs life, yeah right!

Your photos make me homesick for a place I've never been.

Wonderful stuff.

What a great look at life in another country, and what a variety of coastal scenes, town and landscapes.
