Sunlight Shattered on the Waves

I've recently starting taking my son down to a music practice in Bexhill on Saturday mornings. It gives me an hour to spare, so I've been walking along the beach into town. In some ways I think I prefer the seafront there to Hastings, it's much more peaceful.

The wind was up this week because of storm Amy (although nothing compared to what they've had further north) and the sea was very choppy. However, the sun was out too and quite bright. Very beautiful to see it glistening on the waves.
