MORE WAVES

Not every day, but plenty of days over the past month or two have seen good waves on Cornwall's north coast. It's likely elsewhere as well, enough to go around and keep the gills wet for most.

Good to see Newquay getting some surf to validate its "Surf Town' title.

TAKE YOUR PICK

There has been a smorgasbord of swell, surf and waves recently – much of it coupled with favourable winds. An impressive stretch of conditions providing ample days to visit the beach and get some photos. Take your pick.

JUST AN IDEA

I can't remember when I made the decision to shoot black & white for winter, which suggests it was just a passing idea. No particular reason.

However passing, it looks like it stuck.

Now coupled with the 1:1 aspect ratio that I've been shooting in for just over a year, it could be that my admiration for Vivian Maier and Jane Bown has unintentionally made its way into my approach...well, for winter anyway.

ONE LAST LOOK AT 2024

Already bubbling with a few fresh thoughts for 2025...so on we go!
