I’ve photographed Hove Plinth before, but now from a different angle with more sea and the flight of a seagull. I was scouting the viability of this path for a “dividing the frame” group shoot.

I don’t remember taking this, nor do I recognise where it was taken from, but a pretty find…






A thickly foggy day in Hove, shot with a 60mm macro lens.



Looking East we could see the Brighton Palace Pier and the Marina beyond. Looking West we saw some of the many amusements along the beach, again with reflections I could only partially clean up.


As the i360 began to rise, we had a view of Regency Square and other nearby streets. Unfortunately the curved glass saucer shape of the chamber made it impossible to banish all the reflections.




The last of the dusk’s murmuration before the starlings all dove beneath the pier to roost.



I was struck by the blue-grey of the sky against the green of the sea on this particular day in mid-December, not quite fully realised by the final image, but such a view is available from many East-West streets in Brighton and Hove.
