Magical Steart

A simply wonderful evening at Steart for the highest tide of the year - clear, calm and warm. An almond and topaz sunset, with the tide unrolling across the marsh like a silver carpet; and a red moon rising drowsily into the stillness, reflected in the incoming tide. Birds layered across the sky, calling constantly.
