Another grey day after a week of solid rain. Its hardly inspirational for going out and shooting photos. But rather than sit in the ouse I filled up my flask, put my camera bag on my back and went for a walk into town.

A Grey day and almost raining, the light was pretty desperate in terms of photography. I snapped what appears to be a new weather vein on a cottage near the chip shop on Silver street.

I decided on a walk up around the abbey and then back into town to see if I could start to shift some of the Christmas excess off my waistline. Im not one for Gyms etc, much preferring to be outdoors.

Again the light was poor around St Mary’s church. The Ponies in the field were chomping away on their daily delivery of carrots from my good friend Helga who lives down in Church Street.

I walked back down into town through the Franks Terrace area, along The Ropery and then dropping down Boulby Bank. I had my usual nosey about on the harbour side. Took a few drab shots of the boats near The Fleece Public House and decided to set off for home. But just As I was readying to go, the light changed significantly and the sunsetting through a gap in the clouds on the western horizon lit up the early evening sky over town.

The following shots were taken in roughly a 30 minute period around sunset. I was pretty pleased with them and I think the lesson here is that even the most miserable of grey days can still provide a few decent photographs if your willing to persevere.
