I'm Martin, a amateur photographer from England that likes to shoot street photography, landscapes, seascapes and odd image of dogs on film and occasionally full frame digital.
Mote park, Maidstone, England. This was same morning as the previous image. I saw people riding on these things in the park, and had to ask the wife what are called… stop laughing, I’m showing my age when you don’t know names of these things!
Taken on my Leica M4-2, Summicron 50mm f/2 lens with a B&W yellow filter. Shot on Kodak T-Max P3200 film at a ISO of 800.
Mote park, Maidstone, England. A cold, foggy morning with sunlight just starting to break though the fog. I took this either this month while walking the dog, I’d seen these trees in the River Len but not paid too much attention to the scene until seeing them with misty background. This one to be printed and framed on the wall I think.

Think this might be one of my best pictures of street photography so far. I spotted these youngsters taking street pictures with their digital cameras in Whitstable high street, England. The boy in the middle expression just makes the image complete for me.

Whitstable seafront, England. Local sailing club had finished their morning racing and were coming in as the tide was going out. I liked this shot because not only capturing the man’s expression but the queue of boats waiting to be brought up the jetty.

If you hadn’t realized by now, I love dogs. While in Great Yarmouth 2017 on a hot day I spotted these three, I hesitated about taking a frame then walked on having not taken the shot. Upon returning with my wife, I was amazed to see the woman with the same dogs still patiently waiting in the same spot.

I really don’t know why I see these things, think my camera must be drawn to them. I noticed these bricks missing from this wall which is part of the sea defences in Sheerness, England.

Minster Leas beach, Isle of Sheppey, England.
I was taking pictures of the seafront when I spotted this couple at this beach hut. This image appeals to me because of the gentlemen mowing the grass, and his wife was doing the spring cleaning, obviously a home from home.

I had looked at this rocking chair before which is located in Boathouse Cafe at Barton’s point Country Park, England. Just the chair on it’s own didn’t quite make the image for me, but this time the wife and I came in for our mugs of tea to find the chair covered in many different blankets which made for a far more interesting picture, which I’m very pleased with the resulting image.

Taken on a chilly but sunny Sunday morning at Minster beach, Isle of Sheppey, England. The tide had gone out as far as you could see, there was this one couple walking along the shore with their dog that morning.
