The image of Southport on Googl Earth is several years old and only shows the ruins of the old pier. It has been rebuilt, along with the other seaside areas in the last few years. If you look closely at the current Earth inmage you can see some wagons on the beach along the lines of the pier.

Went looking for this site on Google Earth, but could not find a pier in Southport, UK that looked anything like this. Can you be more specific as to the location?

This is great - those lights are a beautiful subject with your serene sunset.

I love this, more interesting than the standard sunset photos! I read Southport, and I thought South Port North Carolina. KUDOs!

I wanted to note that this is my favorite photo on TLF. Colors, compostion, depth of field, contrasts, I love it all.

I want to take a walk here!

beautiful. The lightbulbs and the vanishing point are fantastic. And the shadows of the railings, and the colour of the wood where the sun catches it - too many things to mention. Amazing picture, well done!

Beautiful shot and idyllic scene. The arches going into the distance combined with that gorgeous sunset make for a fabulous combination.
