Sunrise Bay viewing platform early morning economy

I have seen some amazing sunrise  for the first time recently and nobody told me that seeing them live with real eyes was so much more extra special.  
I recently filmed some amazing sunrises only slightly higher than my pov and got some amazing sights. Also I have come to realise that Skegness could use the sunrises to create an early morning economy creating a place people can view the sunrise and buy a tea coffee or even have a sunny side up breakfast, if we were to build a platform that goes up from a slope up where the grass sandy bank, towards lifeguards hut and make it accessible to everyone,  and have a gift shop and refreshments located with perfect seating for people to watch the sunrise, maybe put see through windows views to allow viewing with comfort.  That slightly higher point of view will boost the magical view making for the perfect reflections of the sun as it rises.   services around the moment could make for early morning economy,  sell the sunrise  (Services) 
But the actual platform should be free for people to view the sunrise,  and make it possible for it to be seen any time of the year.
People talk about things to improve, with the 50 million to be used in Skegness. 
But alot of suggestions are very basic improvements to service that are part of normal services like keeping the street lights on. When that's about reserving energy than money. Maybe they could leave them on a bit longer to allow people on foot to be able to see where they are walking. 
Anyway back to the look out perch.
 I notice that every year the sandy grassy bank becomes a trash den for hiding used diapers and I  know this because I  know the Jolly Litterman of Skegness,  and he finds so many, he has even broken grabbers whist trying to pick them up.
The sand bank is also eroding and putting up this viewing platform will hide that eye saw 
Offering something that everyone can make use and its base could add to the sea defences at the same time.
It maybe possible to construct the base by re using old materials and not only could it sell the sunrise to people, I could be used as a thank you to everyone who helps keep the beach tidy.
There could be a wall with local arts on, that could be used to prevent cold chills rattling the bones of the viewers.
There are many people who are awake very early in the morning, but there isn't anywhere to go. 
I have seen the sun up at 4am and the town open up at 9am.  That's a missing possible early morning economy right there.
If the viewing platform live streams the sunrise online. People will want to see it for real. It would be the talk of the town.
As soon as I heard about the money offered to the town, I knew that I needed to share this.
My concept of layout is just an idea, but the finished product maybe different,  but as long as it offers every body that view, people will love it.

If you all like this idea, please add your vote to it.
 There is also something unique about our sunrise, the wind turbines offer an optical illusion, the sun looks like its rising infront of the turbines. 
please share to help make this happen

Complete Sunrise Skegness 4K *no Adds*



Here is a Complete Sunrise from before to its beautiful emerging of golden light.

Take my word for it right now, Seeing this with your real eyes beats any video or photo any day of the week.

I have made this for all those people who can't get out to see it and for the people who simply want to chill out to it.

If you have seen the real thing in Skegness, Then you may have noticed there is normally an optical Illusion where the sun appears to be in front of the wind turbines.

The 2 people walking by the video, I got permission to film them the day before this recording.

Every morning they go for a swim in the sea, Apparently it is Their daily routine.

I am yet to film them using my drone.

so please follow my blog and I will put together a Video Interview with them in the very near future.

so see it first here

air ambulance to incident at Skegness clock tower

Air ambulance crews landed on Skegness beach around 6am this morning to an incident where a cyclist was brought down by a van, apparently he has bad injuries but not be life threatening. 
the thing that is so strange is that the time of the incident would have been very quiet with traffic so how did this happen,  unless it was deliberately done in rage.
The van is a dull navy blue in colour, and the back of the wheel on the bike is pinned down under the transit Van's front right wheel.
I came out for the sunrise for  05:20 am  and the accident mist have happened around 6am.
