The Northumberland Coast

by Joe Cornish

In The Northumberland Coast acclaimed photographer Joe Cornish records his visual impressions of a landscape that has enchanted its vast sandy bays and some of the most beautiful beaches in England, great castles such as Dunstanburgh and Bamburgh that are windswept memorials to a bygone age, the Holy Island of Lindisfarne with its compelling tidal causeway, fishing boats, colonies of seabirds, and uncommercialized coastal towns and villages. Supported by a commentary that blends recollections with historical anecdotes, his photographs capture the region's subtle beauty, intimacy and space.

From Berwick to the Tyne, castles and coastline, some stunning pictures are displayed here. Would have liked a little more commentary here and there.
Northumberland is a county I am very familiar with so it was nice to meander through on a miserable and cold afternoon.
