North Berwick is a delightful seaside gem and former royal burgh in East Lothian, Scotland. Nestled on the south shore of the Firth of Forth, just 20 miles east-northeast of Edinburgh, it’s a place where the sea breeze and rolling light seem made for adventure. Its sweeping beaches and ever-changing coastal scenery are perfect for experimenting with ICM (Intentional Camera Movement) photography — every wave, cloud, and gust of wind offers something new to explore. The colours were surreal.
A week’s retreat at the Beach House on Tantallon Terrace was pure creative bliss. Under the warm guidance of Shona Perkins (My Beautiful Scotland) and Scottish artist Fee Dickinson Reid, we four guests turned our seaside captures from Seacliff, Gullane, and Belhaven Beaches into vibrant paintings, blurring the boundaries between photography and art.
Next time, I’m eager to wander further — perhaps to Tyninghame Beach, Ravensheugh Sands, and Yellowcraig, where the mysterious outline of Fidra Island beckons on the horizon. Who knows what new colours and compositions await there?
