I have a confession to make…
This week’s #CheckOutThatView photo actually wasn’t taken by me. It was taken by my very good friend and partner in crime, Azaria. This friend is the one who helps me come up with crazy ideas on random Tuesday nights, over a pint at The Portivo Lounge in Gloucester (one of our favourite haunts). Azaria also very cleverly designed the logo you see at the top of this blog, of my three daughters off on their travels!
Azaria sent me a photo, similar to this one, a few nights ago and I had to have it! I asked her to take one for #CheckOutThatView and she very kindly said yes. So here is Gloucester Docks, at night…
The photo was taken on a mobile phone, but I think the slightly grainy texture, makes it look like a really arty piece. It looks more like an oil painting that a photograph.
Many of the people who link up regularly to #CheckOutThatView know I have a great love of photographs which feature water and/or sunshine, so this picture works for me on that level too!

Fabulous! When I worked in Gloucester and walked through the docks to the car park, I was forever taking photos of the docks. I always particularly loved the photos at sunset. (Your logo is brilliant by the way. Your friend is clearly very talented!)
One of my good friends is moving to Gloucester so looking forward to checking this out myself when i visit. Lovely atmospheric picture.
I do love these city views as much as stunning country views. This is a lovely picture, I love the grainy look too, mine has the same this week, I think it gives them atmosphere. Thank you for hosting lovely xx
Yes, that’s a great view. I must pay a visit there one of these days.
Ooh my two would love it here, they love docks and boats xx
Lovely image, the lighting is beautiful, so interesting to see the masts in the night sky.
Lovely colours, sometimes a mobile just captures the scene perfectly.
Hello! Beautiful sky and reflections! Love this Linky, Emma! xxx
Great photo, it looks so fun at night

Lovely place! Night shots are so hard and yet this one captured the dark very well =) #checkoutthatview / mysundayphoto
