The end of a lovely Autumn day spent exploring the coastline of Pembrokeshire in West Wales found my wife Liz and myself on the west facing beach of Broad Haven, in the middle of St Bride's Bay.
We'd been blessed with a good deal of sunshine during our excursions, but as sunset approached the sky started to cloud over as the breeze got up.
Never mind though, as clouds are meat and drink to me in my pursuit of interesting scenes to capture as time lapse videos.
So we enjoyed a final couple of hours by the sea, enjoying the dramatic light show as the sun played hide and seek in and out of the clouds as the tide crept slowly up the beach.
Finally, when almost all the colour had bled from the sky, I packed up the camera and we walked a few metres across the road to the conveniently placed restaurant for a very welcome hot meal.
