The story behind this image

A hazy end to the day on the North Wales coast and the setting sun glowed orange though the moisture laden air as Liz and I took in the view from the West Shore at Llandudno.

The low tide had exposed a vast acreage of wet sand which reflected the sunlight as a golden streak as it tracked down the side of the dramatic headland at Penmaenmawr on its way to the horizon.

Of course, such beautiful lighting couldn't go un-photographed, and so my camera was firmly bolted onto the tripod, recording hundreds of RAW files that would get strung together to make my Sunset Time Lapse 22 video, from which I've taken this single still image.
