In To The Sea, Slowly
Last weekend I had a flying visit up to Southwold in Suffolk and managed to find the time to go visit one of my favourite places in the whole world, Covehithe. The place is suffering dramatically from coastal erosion but it really became noticeable to me when the path my friend Bryony and I cycled [...]
Colour Snow
As well as the roll of B&W film I shot and developed back when the snow first fell I also took a couple of rolls of colour too which I just got back from the lab. Despite being primarily black and white themselves the little dashes and tones of colour add that something extra. This [...]
Between the Snowflakes
I’m sure everyone in the UK has enjoyed the snow over the last week (unless they were stranded in their car overnight). On Wednesday, when the falling snow was heaviest, I braved the cold and walked down to the seafront and then to the pier and the skatepark to explore the familiar, heavily changed by [...]
Brighton and Essex
I spent about a week or so before, during and after Christmas on trips to see friends and family including visiting Brighton and a road trip up to Suffolk and Essex. So glad I got to see so many people, it has been a while since I’ve been to Brighton and Essex in particular. New [...]
Fresh Catch
I was out early on my bike on Saturday morning (again) and after a ride along the sea front ended up at the harbour looking at the fishing boats. I popped in to Johnson’s, a fish wholesaler and small fish market, and they were kind enough to allow me to take photos of them at [...]
Warm Light, Cold Air
On Saturday morning I went out for a really early bike ride off of the island and around the harbour. So good to be out at that time of day and riding out around one of my favourite places. I have put a video up on Forever Circling filmed during the ride and will be [...]
Selsey
Continuing the quiet, empty beach exploration this month, Selsey (south of Chichester) was next on the list and was visited last Saturday afternoon. Although the southerly point of the peninsula has wide, uninterrupted panoramic views of the sea it was the easterly beaches and Pagham Harbour that were the most beautiful landscapes with wide seascapes [...]
Dungeness
After a long time spent at the top of my mental must visit list (which is long), I was lucky enough to finally go and explore the wonderful beaches and headland of Dungeness on Sunday. Stark landscapes, empty shingle beaches, expansive seascapes, moody skies, old rusted engines, rotten wood boats, old nuclear power stations, pylons, [...]
Southwold
Will be going back up to Southwold in Suffolk this weekend, the last visit was back in January. Hoping for some warm, dry weather as a contrast to the wet storms last time.
Another Sunrise
Saturday morning I woke up at 4am and was unable to go back to sleep so I went out to the beach again on my bike, this time with tripod and bulb/cable shutter, hoping to catch the sunrise. It turned out to be overcast so there were no nice colours in the sky but it [...]
