It’s such a posh sounding place, I expected elegant hotels and classy shops. I couldn’t have been more wrong…

Brighton, Home of the Naughty Weekend
Sunshine has been in very short supply this week – luckily, when we did get our 30 minutes worth, we were at the Brighton Pavilion and managed to get some nice shots there.
Folkestone and Around
I have to say, this is not a very interesting part of the UK. Kent is known as “the garden of England”, but I fail to see why. It’s dull and flat, the beaches are just pebbles, the towns are boring, it’s hard to find anything worth photographing. But we try…
Houses in Folkestone – that sky hardly looks British, does it?

There’s nothing like getting to a location and finding scaffolding, or roadworks. The only thing missing from this scene is the White Van…
Lincoln
Whitby and the Yorkshire Coast
The first day we went to Flamborough Head, it was so windy that as I walked, I could feel the foot that was lifted off the ground actually being blown around! So, not to be put off, we went a few more times. I wouldn’t say we had good weather, but it was impressive. Lovely place!
