This Time in Black and White

I’m a bit short on lighthouses in the middle of Europe, so I’m using some photos from 2015.

The Roker lighthouse in Sunderland as seen through the C2C (coast to coast) giant shutter.

Approaching the lighthouse from the south and approaching it from the north.

Having approached I stood directly underneath and had nowhere to go.

I’ve decided that it looks best from the shore, showing off its beautifully curved pier.

A Clear View

I keep coming back to this room for its view. It’s in Sunderland overlooking Roker Beach with the Roker lighthouse in the back.

Directly on the beach is a different window – the way marker for the C2C route which is a cycling route from coast to coast, or sea to sea, from Workington in the west to Sunderland in the east. It is shaped like a camera aperture – a window we are all very familiar with if we use (or have used) actual cameras.

And what a view that is!  Tomorrow it will be exactly two years that I first visited my friend in her apartment.  It looks out on the lighthouse of Roker Beach in Sunderland.  The middle frame would make a perfect picture.
