A very wild seaside on Friday afternoon

I uploaded some photos Martin took by the sea in Broughty Ferry, uploading them to other places. But I thought they might be of interest here too. Here are 4 of the best pictures. This is Broughty Ferry, a seaside suburb in eastern Dundee, Scotland. near where we live.

A very wild seafront scene. At the front of a picture a bench sits, looking out towards a very wild sea, throwing up spray beside and around it. Behind in the distance can be seen a pier and far beyond that oil rigs being worked on, and beyond that the outline of Dundee by the seaside. You can also just glimpse the Tay Road Bridge and Tay Rail Bridge in the distance.

A dark bench sitting on a walkway beside the sea, totally drenched with seaspray which fills the image. The sea beyond it looks extremely wild.

A seafront with the land to the left and benches running alongside it, and a very wild sea on the right throwing spray up onto the pavement and benches. In the background is an ornate arch sculpture, and beyond that an old castle with a tower in the middle. Behind is a slightly cloudy blue sky.

Looking across a wild river/sea estuary. There is a small outcrop of land in the middle left, and in the background is more land on the other side of the big river. The sea is wild, and a white seagull skims across in the air from left to right, its wings spread wide, and it outlined against the sea and land beyond.

I'm glad *I'm* not sitting on that bench.
