Kemptown Streets Leading to the Sea

Narrow street lined with colorful buildings and balconies, leading towards the seaside in bright daylight. — Kemptown, Brighton

On a walk home from Kemptown I was struck by the many interesting streets leading down to the beach and the English Channel. I’m not sure any of the individual pictures make the grade but as a small collection…?

Beach Hut Portraits

Two elderly men relax in beach huts, one seated in a chair with sunglasses, while the other is reflected in a mirror inside the hut, with the ocean in the background. — Hove Promenade

As I was passing, I noticed the mirror in the hut and they invited me over to take my own photograph in the reflection. I started framing it up, then asked if I could include them in the picture and this was the result.

Enjoying the Sun

A heavily tattooed man with a beard lying on a park bench, wearing sunglasses, with a relaxed expression, under bright sunlight. — Hove Promenade

I was photographing the sea from the railing next to this bench, while he watched me. Eventually I told him how I like his ink and asked if I could take his picture. After I showed it to him we had a quick laugh about our spreading middles.

Metternich Slept Here

I See You

I’m not sure what this dog was looking at, but he maintained this pose long enough for me to get out my camera, get it on and focused and take a few shots. He was very still and focused.
