The high tides arrived as predicted, of course. However due to the exceptional period of High Pressure calm weather during the days of King Tides the water levels did not even reach as high as this year’s previous winter storms. Hence there was little back-shore disturbance to record, and no spectacular wave action.

Morning fog also complicated the photographer’s task.

For the record here are a couple of this year’s pictures:
