Dinghy
30.10.22
Returning to the same locations forces you to look for different compositions. It doesn’t always work out but these colourful dinghy were a perfect subject to focus on. The soft sunlight was great to play with.

Pulled up at Bordeaux to check out the stunning light in the channel and spotted this orange dingy. I stood my ground for 45 minutes with a feeling the clouds would catch some amazing colours.

I found it really hard to find a boat with any foreground interest until I was about to leave, the sun came out and the clouds properly lit up. Love the little mounds of sand.

Left a very small window to find somewhere and the tides weren't great but Bordeaux is always a good shout for a last minute rush.

Once in a while you get rewarded for those early mornings. Bordeaux under a blanket of rain with the sun trying to push through, giving an amazing sky.

Still waiting for that 2022 ultimate sunrise! These clouds thinned out pretty quickly as I left home so didn't quite live up to expectations but hopefully with the warmer weather comes some epic storm clouds.

Battling a massive hangover today and the weather didn’t really bring out any creative juices!

I always remember mid August school summer holidays being non stop blue skies, down the beach with mates and cycling around without a care in the world. Summer seems to have faded away in the blink of an eye this year and there’s no signs of an imminent heatwave returning this year. Other than this bust of sun, it’s been another grey and slightly moist one.

For years and years I’ve always wondered what purpose this building had. After some digging I found out that, before being sold to private owners, it was owned by the Corporation of Trinity House of Deptford Strond (and formally as The Master, Wardens and Assistants of the Guild Fraternity or Brotherhood of the most glorious and undivided Trinity and of St Clement in the Parish of Deptford Strond in the County of Kent)
Basically it was managed by Trinity House which is a marine charity responsible for the maintenance of navigational aids and lighthouses around the British Isles.

A place I’ve been meaning to head back to for some time now, the cool calm morning seem like to perfect moment to do it. When I walked down the steps I had an instant ‘wow’ moment. A little corner of Guernsey that often gets overlooked from the path, it’s definitely a place to relax your mind and take in the beauty of our coast.

After weeks of stunning calm days, the gales nearly put me off heading out this evening. But, I always have one eye up in sky just in case there’s some cloud worth freezing my arse off for.

Another beautiful spring day on the rock. Hardly a breath of wind and the sea was almost completely flat. Hopefully this is a sign of a long hot summer to come.

Summer’s back up and running for the time being, no wind and you could hear the laughter of kids jumping off the pier at Rousse in the distance.

Holidays will be hard to come by this year so the next best thing is to be a tourist in your own area. Le Gouffre has some stunning scenery and walks, even better is the summer sunshine!

Took the kids to see Frog Rock for the first time today. Nice to see them enjoying the outdoors again. I want to plant memories of the island in their heads and hopefully enjoy it as much as I do. Had to take a detour past this boat on the coast road. Loving all the Flags and bunting around the island at the moment. Coulnt’t ask to be quarantined anywhere better really.

With such big tides and a relatively flat seabed, I was forced away from my initial set up pretty quickly. The good thing was it forced me to not shoot the same old thing. That said, I will be back when all the boats are back in the water.

Some days you just need to let yourself fail and move on.
