The Yorkshire seaside

 I lived for two years in Leeds in West Yorkshire and I made the most of the county by visiting as many town, cities and places I could. 

 I went to Whitby where Bram Stoker's Dracula's legend came to life and enjoyed one of the few sunny days available in the north of England. 

 Whitby is a little seaside town on the east cost of North Yorkshire. It offers touristic as well as historical places and make the visit quite interesting. 

 Here are a few photos I took when I was there:  

The Whitby harbour

In the Whitby harbour, there are a few fishing boats, a lot of seagulls and very nice seaside houses.

 

Dracula's lair

Here is a view from Whitby abbey, the abbey that inspired Bram Stoker's in the writing of his most famous novel, Dracula. 

Running dog

It is one of my favourite shot. I really like it because I find quite difficult to shoot people without taking the spontaneity of the moment. After all, photos are just that, stolen moment frozen in time.

The Scarborough sheds

Despite the grey weather very common in the North, you couldn't possibly feel blue in those colorful beach huts.

Loneliness

This photo was taken on the Liverpool seaside. I quite like it as well. you cannot see from where it shot it but the person you see going into the water is in fact a statue, probably the only one capable of touching the cold northern water. 

Here is another example of the effect of an overcast sky.
