The weather forecast was GRIM for today, especially the first half of the day and so it was just my luck that today was a day I was scheduled to demonstrate on a 2nd year field day. I was less than looking forward to standing around outside in the heavy rain for 4 hours, but nonetheless packed my lunch and got my field gear together. After getting down to The Hoe (Plymouth seafront) and getting all geared up, the weather turned out to be ok for the most part with some spitting rain followed by rays of sunshine beaming through the cloud cover. Just to the east of where the students were working, men were working to dismantle the diving platforms due to the number of injuries (and even a death or two) from kids jumping off them at low tide and hitting the rocks below even though it had been that have been part of the Plymouth seafront for YEARS. The boat was the men's support boat taking the pieces of cut metal away from the site. The orange colour of the boat against the blues and greens of the water with the white of the gulls against the grey sky presented an amazing colour opportunity too good to pass up!
