Grey stratocumulus clouds reflecting in sea water channel crossing sand beach expanse, to orange sunset glow, Fairhaven, Lytham

---

Yellow, orange glow of a sun that has set below the western horizon and many small, dark grey stratocumulus clouds reflecting in a sea water channel crossing a vast expanse of low tide beach sand, some way out from the coastline at Fairhaven, Lytham St Annes. The tidal range on the beach varies. A 7 metre high tide covers only a small section of beach, allowing large areas to dry out and blow in the wind. A 10 metre high tide, in contrast, will flood the beach and reach the coastline (right of shot), leaving the beach wet at low tide.
