Way before I really started to embrace the urban photography scene, my subject matter was the beach especially sunsets and low tide at dusk.....one of the benefits living on the west coast 😁✌️

Some more film photographs, taken over a decade ago in Blackpool, some of these spaces no longer exist, but some are still there 😁✌️I usually try to avoid people in the frame, but the pigeons are an occupational hazard 😁🐦

Adding a new roll of film and taking the first frame, was often done in the kitchen, this in turn led to a series of domestic kitchen photographs, revolving around food and drink - all shot on film 😁🍲✌️

Also Blackpool.....I keep thinking about a collection of non-street work, being west facing the sunsets are amazing at times, there is also some very fierce weather too, thankfully not too often 😁✌️

The end of the affair, or at least the end of capturing a favourite of many photographers visiting the resort wanting a break from the more traditional views. Some shots of the brutalist complex taken over the years including it's last days.

Occasionally I do take film photographs, that said it really isn't that much of late. These shots are from over a decade ago, and remain some of my favourite photographs, taken with one of my many film cameras...all shot in #Blackpool ✌️😁 #photography #filmcamera #streetphotography #urbanphotography

Street corners, one of my favourite approaches to capturing #Blackpool. It's something that I kind of fell into as opposed to consciously setting off to do. Perhaps an element of anticipation, expectation or the moment held.... maybe just because it looked OK 😁✌️

We often talk about opportunities presenting themselves. After wandering around taking photos of the side streets, stopping to get a drink before heading home and looking up after sitting down in a popular fast food chain...

The omnipresent tower, a beacon a night and icon during the day. It immediately places any photograph it appears in.....though there is still the occasional confusion with a certain tower in Paris! 😁✌️

The closed quiet of a seaside town out of season, it's not just the lack of people, but also the shuttered buildings and the endless grey days that completely change the atmosphere of the town 😁✌️

This place, old police station and courts, had been a favourite haunt of many photographers visiting the town, due to its brutalist design. Some have mixed feelings of the intent to demolish and redevelope the space 😁✌️

As a kid, I used to have a map of the world on my bedroom wall, staring at it as I went to sleep every night, it clearly imprinted on me in such a way that when I see render falling off walls, I immediately think of that world map 😅✌️

This place is one of those rare finds that you have to almost rub your eyes to believe what you are seeing. A mothballed café tucked away at the back of an amusement arcade.

Capturing the multitude of fast food places around the resort when there is nobody in them became a bit of a passion project, the same way I avoid streets with cars, I have the same feeling about takeaways and people 😁✌️

I do try to avoid scenes with cars, and will often walk away from an opportunity if there are too many. Very rare to see something like this with a lonely van being the only vehicle 😁✌️

Facing the west coast, as the sun starts to dip, the light takes on a warmth that transforms many of the street corners across the resort. This is one of my favourite spots and popped up on Flickr explore today too ✌️😁
