Tuesday 4th October 2022 - Alison Taylor - Coastal Photography
Location: Zoom 7:30pm
Working on the coast is also demanding as you need to have the correct equipment with you before you start taking photographs as there is nowhere to put the camera bag.
The other main problem is that the tide advances and retreats incredibly quickly so there is a limited time to capture each shot. I also have to be very aware of the level of the tide so I don’t get cut off from safety on the shore.
However, photographing waves and the sea always produces images with mood so it is well worth getting wet feet and the disappointment of water on the lens. There is always another day!

Location: Zoom 7:30pm
