Time and tide wait...

Because of the lockdown that is now happening and staying at home, I thought it would be nice to share some photos.

You may already know that the Bristol Channel has the second largest difference in the world between high tide and low tide. Here a some photographs taken from Wain's Hill in Clevedon looking towards Weston-super-Mare. They were taken at different times of one Summer's day that show a little bit of that tidal effect.

Amazing really that in just one and a half hours such a colossal volume of water gets shifted. Or is it staying where it is and the solid earth is rotating beneath it?

Finally, here is a different view looking towards Wales later in the day at 20:20
