I told you I would return... - a photo on Flickriver

My last visit to the Time and Tide Bell at Mablethorpe had the worst sky imaginable so a few weeks ago despite the fact I had to walk further from the car than I am comfortable with due to my very many periods of PVCs. I simply could not turn down the opportunity to capture the Sculpture with the possibilities the sky presented me with on this particular day. Without breaking the speed limits we sped along and then heart in mouth I reached the site of the bell and as can imagine I worked that scene from every possible angle. This is a favourite because of the sky. As you can see we waited a couple of hours for the tide to come in so we could hear the bell chime, which is supposedly quite soft. Did we hear it ring ? A big fat NO....
Time and Tide Bells are exceptional public artworks by sculptor Marcus Vergette. This one is on the coast north of Mablethorpe. They stand near the high tide mark at sites round the coast. Played by the movement of the water, the bell creates a varying, gentle, musical pattern, changing as the tide rises.
For those interested in a close up photo of the Time and Tide Bell here is the link to my previous shot..
