Soft greys

 

Cley Beach

 

A short visit to Norfolk yesterday.  A bright day but a band of cloud hung over the coast, filtering the light.  All the colours were muted to these soft greys.  We walked around Cley Marsh.  The reeds, bleached by sun, wind and sea.  Marsh harriers in the sky, lapwings on the field, avocets on the scrapes.  The North Sea at low tide, quiet and subdued.
