A couple of years ago my family and I were lucky enough to holiday at Woolacombe Bay on the North Devon coast in England. We had such a lovely time. Surfing, paddle boarding and skim boarding were enjoyed as well as digging one huge boy size hole to play in! The North Devon coast has some of the best beaches in the UK and this scene is from a photo taken as the sun was setting on the last day of our family holiday. It's a simple landscape but the amazing evening colours bring this subject to life.

Good luck,

Michael
