category 1 :     Ipswich Cranes


1


Moody Dockland — taken on a grey turbulent day


2


Cranes Salute — at weekends the cranes are usually lined up in one direction - the exact direction
tends to vary.  On this occasion, the appearance is of the cranes 'saluting' the Riverside Maltings.


3


Inline Cranes — parked for the weekend!


4


The Gathering Storm — taken during the high winds of March 2008,
when the wind prevented work and the cranes were parked in the safest direction


5


Stoke Quay — the cranes, viewed from a part of Ipswich waterfront which is rarely visited


6


The lonely viewing point


7


The old bouy, daytime  •  a view of Ipswich docks development taken from Stoke Bridge.


8


The old bouy, nightime  •  another of Ipswich docks taken from Stoke Bridge, at night.


9


Reflections — on this particular night, the water was so still it provided a perfect reflective surface
- well, not totally perfect - I had to wait for plastic bags & other garbage to drift out of sight!



category 2 :     Ipswich Landmarks


1


Grandma — taken late on a Sunday evening when the town centre was unusually quiet


2


GRE — this picture with Christmas lighting was taken December 2007


3


Novotel — a difficult subject owing to the orange street lighting


4


Skatepark by twilight — an unusual deep red twilight


5


The Homecoming — as one arrives into Ipswich at night along the A12,
the final part always reminds me of a plane coming in to land (taken from the bridge)


6


The Information Highway — information overload!



category 3 :     Ipswich Views


1


Nacton Shores — I arrived late, so the sun had almost vanished when I took
this shot across the River Orwell from Nacton Shores.


2


Orwell Bridge by moonlight — an unusual photo opportunity!


3


Orwell Bridge by night — it was so dark
I could barely make out where to point the camera!


4


Riverside in Twilight — one of those unusual twilights when the horizon lights up in a deep red glow.
The atmosphere of this picture was further enhanced by the sky in the last phase of deep blue.


5


Wherstead Sunset
taken from The Strand


6


Wolverstone Marina by night — taken in pitch black
- the giveaway is the lights reflected on the water - you would never see that in daylight!



category 4 :     Suffolk Views


1


Framlingham at dusk


2


Troubled Sky — somewhere in the East Anglian countryside
~ the cloud formation ran for miles


3


Freston Woods — bluebell time in May


4


Royal Hospital School - Holbrook
- the floodlit tower can be seen for miles


5


Martian — a recent East Anglian Daily Times report said 'Suffolk is a UFO hotspot'.  Well, it's true!
Here's a green-eyed Martian caught inspecting Ipswich Sewage Works - I wonder what he thought of that!
