Learning to sail at Priory Bay, Isle of Wight

A trip to the east coast of the Island for a change, and a new location for me with my first visit to Priory Bay. The beach was packed on a lovely sunny afternoon and at the far south end of the bay I could see a sailing school just beginning their lesson.

Then out of nowhere a sea fog came rolling in and completely enveloped the bay, it was quite surreal, felt like a scene from a Stephen King movie and of course it was a unique photo opportunity. As soon as I saw it moving in towards these little sailboats I wanted to create one of these painterly images from it (more to come, of course :)
