Over the previous night, the second of the Christmas storm fronts had passed through the West Country. Whilst most of the rain, baring the odd shower, had passed, a strong on-shore wind remained and conditions were challenging. The wind rattled my tripod making 10-stop exposures out of the question. The sea was a boiling mess of white froth and the high tide was longer and higher than the previous day. The sea did not begin to clear the beach until the light was failing, leaving only a enough time for a few shots.

Welcombe Beach
Due to weather and commitments, there were only two days during my Christmas trip to Devon that were available for photography. Boxing Day and the day after. With limited time, for my second day out, I chose to visit another favourite location, Welcombe Mouth.
