A most unusual point of view
Many’s the time I’ve strolled down Saltburn pier, but it’s never looked like this before. Roll the gallery for a few smiles.
I felt so sorry for Saltburn when I saw the news this morning. There was extensive flooding after yesterday’s torrential rain. This morning they’ll be cleaning up.
Yesterday I posted this young lady in the Weekly Photo Challenge which required a a shot from an unusual point of view. She is very winsome but not in very good focus. In retrospect I would have been better using either my first or last gallery photo, don’t you think? Do you have a favourite?
That’s my six words (and a bit) for this Saturday. If you’d like to join Cate at Show My Face for Six Word Saturday you’d be very welcome. The explanation is in the header and the links.

The first I knew of it was last year at Royal Jubilee time. They were on the railings up above the beach and I went looking for them there last Thursday, but they were down on the pier. I loved it, surfboarding dog too 🙂

I think all these knitting bombs (great name!!!)are just fantastic. Some people have such great imagination. Hope the floods have not caused too much damage

I loved them all, Pomme. There were still more but the day is only so long! 🙂
I hope it was just car park and play area damaged. The stream burst its banks but most of the buildings are cliff top.

Love all of these, Jo. So many stitches, and I’m sure they were all created with love. That mermaid has very nice breasts. 🙂 Hope the flooding wasn’t too destructive.

Her dainty shells were duly noted by one of my male followers, Ad 🙂
There’s a stream that runs into the sea and it always has the potential to flood that area. Fortunately there aren’t houses down there, but a cafe or two. The wily folks of Saltburn mostly live on the cliff top (and THAT has its problems too!)
