This collection of photographs captures Redcar Beach during the early moments of golden hour, shortly after sunrise. The intention was to explore how natural light transforms the coastal landscape, creating warm tones across the sky and reflecting softly on the surface of the sea. The composition places the horizon in the centre of the frame, capturing the dynamic sky while emphasising the wide expanse of reflected light across the sea. The image was taken in manual mode, allowing adjustments to aperture, ISO, and shutter speed to balance the brightness of the sky while maintaining detail in the foreground. Warm golden hues contrast with the cooler blues of the sea, creating a calm and atmospheric mood. Overall, the photograph successfully captures the peaceful quality of the early morning coastline and demonstrates how golden hour lighting can enhance colour and atmosphere.
