Ragotin in the lake at Parc Borély, Marseille. A plant-eating river rodent, similar to a beaver, known variously as Nutria or Coypu.
Photos of Eastbourne taken yesterday
An experimental visit to Eastbourne pier and sea front to try out a homebrew Edwardian photographic look.
Roll film was first available in the 1870s but it was Kodak’s Box Brownie range of cameras, first marketed in 1900, which popularised holiday snapshots in the photographic postcard format, 6”x4”. This was Eastbourne’s heyday; my set from a visit yesterday with a modern camera, aims to model this look.
Brighton is home to some spectacular street art... from the train to the beach, mostly it is enjoyed or disdained and ignored though I'm not sure the owners of Thameslink motor unit 700108 are too pleased.
Livening up a routine train ride from London to Brighton via Gatwick with some experimentation with SlitScan camera techniques. This is similar in principle to an office flat bed scanner except that my camera is looking out of the window as the train moves.
