'The Waverley Paddle Steamer Sets Forth.' Southwold Pier, Suffolk.

'The Waverley Paddle Steamer Sets Forth.' Southwold Pier, Suffolk.
29th Sept 2009

This was my fourth attempt to capture this historic Steamer (built in 1947) leaving Southwold Pier, having picked up passengers bound for London.

Previous to this the weather had either been completely overcast (plain sky) or sea conditions had been too rough for docking. On one occassion I had waited only for the Steamer to just pass by on the horizon!

The sepia tone gives the image the correct 'feel'.
