Watching the sunrise at Maldon, Essex.

Prior to my visit,I was unaware that The Hythe,at Maldon, was the main port for Thames Barges.Imagine then my delight and surprise,when,as soon as I'd set up my tripod and camera,a barge purred past on it's way to the sea.So,here are a few shots taken near The Hythe, Maldon, on the River Blackwater.

A Thames barge heads for the open sea,at dawn.
