"Where Do You Shoot From…….."
When I am out and about trying to find scenes and things to capture my imagination I come across countless people who I call “SSSB” shooters. The little ditty stands for See Stop Shoot Brigade….. I wonder how many of the images they take still reside in a digital dungeon never to be seen printed out and displayed due to the fact that the image they captured did not resemble the scene that initially caused them to stop.
I myself can spend quite sometime wandering an area trying to find the best position to shot from, 9 times out of 10 I will come away with multiple images from the same location that all work in one way, or another.
I was recently having a wander round Dungeness Point with a friend and fellow photographer Nathan Hulse and whilst we were there we were having a sort of unspoken competition to see who could find the most shots out of one subject.
Here is a shot of Nathan taking the low perspective with one of the items that captured his interest, you will be able to see other examples of the Nathan’s shots on his blog site.

Dungeness Point.
Dungeness is littered with fishing boats and sheds used by the fisherman, It is a vast shingle bank that produces great images when the weather is on your side.
Wandering around the shingle banks amid the beached fishing boats and the hulls of the derelict and dishevelled vessels of years gone by your attention is grabbed by shapes, colours and patterns that are everywhere.
This vessel has not seen the water for years and I doubt if it will ever again, paint fading and peeling away and the deck slowly rotting.
Also to be found along the beach are the hand winches and mechanical winches that have been used over the years to drag the vessel back on to the safety of the shingle once the days fishing has been completed and it is time to return home.
