WITH STUNNING colours and serene scenes, these photographs capture the otherworldly beauty of the English coast. These striking images were taken by photographer Steven Docwra, 44, of Great Yarmouth, Norfolk after he made the decision to photograph the coastline in all its glory. 'My pictures show the Norfolk/Suffolk coastline lit by the beautiful colours of the rising or setting sun, and the motion of the sea or reflected light from the wet sand,' said Steven. 'I've always been drawn to the sea, having lived beside it for 44 years and as an ex-sea angler I have been on the beach in all sorts of weather conditions.
