Off season. Dreamland's sign tells you so, in case the empty streets hadn't already.

There's something about this town that film suits better than digital — the slight shift in colour, the way the grain holds the cold light

Whilst I have been enjoying shooting digital (see here on my other channel @_from_my_lens_digital_ ) it's great to be shooting and developing

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
