A very lucky guess! I was trying to make it be at Jenny Brown's Point, south of Silverdale, opposite Grange. It wouldn't fit.

Forest of Bowland in the background. Must go there again....    Thanks DM!

Nope. Forest of Bowland is behind me. This is on the beach by the caravan park at Flookburgh looking NW.

It's one of those photos that really draws you in & makes you look again and again.  Shame about the bottom corners, but you couldn't really crop them out without spoiling the symmetry.

I only had a little tripod with me and could barely get enough height to get this picture. I'd like to go back and take it properly.. The font really is quite a feature which I could make more of.
