I recently enjoyed a short visit to the popular seaside village of Anstruther, whilst staying in Edinburgh. The pretty harbour is located in the East Neuk of Fife, on the east coast of Scotland. It is situated roughly 10 miles south of St. Andrews and directly opposite North Berwick, across the Firth of Forth in East Lothian.
I came to visit the small harbour, which apparently was once home to Scotland’s main fishing fleet. These days, Anstruther harbour has more pleasure boats than fishing boats. Either side of the old harbour walls are little beaches, which are only visible to those who explore beyond the marina.
My visit was during a very busy day in August when Anstruther was teeming with crowds of tourists and coach parties. The weather was erratic with biblical downpours interspersed with amazing flashes of sunlight. The contrasting light made the decision to process the photographs in black and white easy.
All images were taken with my Canon R6 and a Canon 50mm EF 1.2 L lens, handheld
