Stuart's Photography

My theme this week is the tiny island of Lindisfarne, famous for being a place of holy retreat and for the mead and other drinks that it produces. Lindisfarne is connected to the mainland by a causeway that is only accessible when the tide goes out, and I made the area of the island around the causeway my focus for the day.

The drivers’ refuge on the causeway is very small, but it does afford a lovely view along the length of the causeway to Holy Island. The walkers you can see are just about to leave the road and trudge through the muddy bay floor to follow the line of marker poles that mark out the alternative route across the bay.
