In the name of love?

From My Lens August 2, 2025

Exploring Margate: A Coastal Gem with Stories to Tell

From My Lens March 9, 2025

I don’t fully know what the allure of a British kitsch seaside town is for me, but its nostalgic. I do think it has some association with me being born and growing up in the ‘land locked’ midlands.

Yesterday would have been my dad’s 89th birthday, and its almost 10 years since his passing. So the kids and I decided to have a trip to Margate, the main reason was to see ‘Resistance’ exhibition that was curated by Steve McQueen, but also just to take a chill.

Tons of Folks, AKA Folkestone

From My Lens June 30, 2024

Had a lovely start to the weekend yesterday, up nice and early at 07:00 having a lovely morning coffee and editing photos, giving the website a minor refresh adding some new products to the store.

My daughter - having surpassed my expectations in approach and preparation to her GCSE’s - is starting her summer holiday, with a camping trip to wales, with her friends.

So apparently it is all about the gear. Or at least about the gear that isn't expensive. 

This little Nikon F80 is a gem of a camera.

Delayed post of August 2025 #Modweekender2025.  Having to wait that little longer for the film lab to develop my film.

Selection of Kodak Gold on #35mm and #120.
Had a bit of a change around in my camera inventory.  I sold my #Chamonix45n2 4x5 large format gear.  Whilst I loved that camera, it was too clunky for my type of photography.

Lovely Margate. 

This set for me is the night and day difference between home and printlab developing.

The film was 18mths expired, but @agphotographic_photolab did a stellar job. 

For me that’s the 120 film developing sorted, I j
