Having previously shot a time lapse sequence here at Rhos-on-Sea on the North Wales coast, to show the rising of a 'mega moon' over Colwyn Bay, I made a mental note to return during daylight hours to have a go at making a time lapse video of the tide filling the little harbour just off to the left of where I was filming previously.
It took a bit of planning to find an afternoon with the right combination of tide, weather and sunset time, but eventually all three important factors came together and I was able to shoot the stills for this short video.
