Lockdown

From My Lens June 4, 2020

Decided to pop into town for an end of the day meander.

Seeing first hand the sheer quietness of COVID-19 and the impact of the lockdown on the city, is dystopian.

This period has also led to some interesting discussions with my kids.

What their generation have lost with the exclusion from their peers and friends in the school environment, they have made up with their ability to understand and adapt to these changing times.

What I did notice tonight was a little change.

Whether it was shop owners painting their shopfronts, signs on windows stating 'Opening soon' or owners dusting down counters, there is a sense of change in the air.

This is a once in a lifetime event, I'm so glad that I decided to document it.

You can see the COVID-19 project here.

As this is an ongoing project, I decided to make this into my first zine, Volume I - COVID-19, which will go live this weekend.

Here's a selection of images taken in Dungeness. Just love this place.  I miss the large format gear, but it was just a little too much of a faff setting up and taking shots
