Town
17.10.21
13 hours into the night and 30 minutes before sunrise. Always loved this spot and will no doubt revisit here many more times.

Plan A was a complete failure this morning, mostly due to the clouds being in the wrong place at the wrong time. This was Plan B. Plan A will have to wait for the tides in a few weeks. Shame the trees have started to restrict the view. I remember years ago you had a full panoramic view to the Town Church!

A little continental influence in the heart of St Peter Port. Town looks great in summer, if you ignore all the scaffolding and empty shops!

The house prices in Guernsey are unbelievably f**king stupid at the moment, it actually takes the piss. But (there’s always a but with me), when you concider the luxurious lifestyle we have and the views some properties offer, it kind of makes sense. The silhouette of the table and chairs caught my eye, while admiring a view that I’ll probably never afford!

Alana had Grace round for a sleepover last night. Took them out for wander round town and to a place the kids love, Shake It 2 in the Arcade. I have to say they do some pretty good thick shakes!

One of the most densely populated areas in town, probably looking very similar to what it did 100 years ago.

It may not be a dazzling metropolis but it’s uniquely Guernsey and it was looking picture perfect on the way past this evening.

A sunrise this good needed a view to match it. Fiery view from the top of Arcade Steps.

First day back at work and relentless rain really doesn’t make things easy when you just want a nice simple shot. After all these years, one thing that I have come to terms with is that not every day will be your best shot but, things can only get better!

The rain got the better of me today. Sheltered in this alley between Contree Mansell and Mansell Street, it was the only shot I had the enthusiasm for. Interestingly though, these buildings date back the the mid 1600’s so there must be some interesting stories from around here. You can only wander!

Scanning the streets of St Peter Port for some inspiration. Always found something really authentic and interesting about this little shop. All the big chains and high street shops that have come and go over the years have nothing against the handy convenient stores.

Many times I’ve stumbled up this street. Those days are almost a distant memory but for the younger generation, it seems Thursday is the new Friday.

Left it a bit late this morning but the best of the colour didn’t happen till just after the sun came up so I was happy.

It’s that in between season when things can turn from good to bad in a very short space of time. This morning was a complete contrast to late afternoon.

Approaching the end of another decade, this view changes very little but the people we met and partied with will have many stories to tell. The after town house party’s, the all nighters, the fights, nights in the cell, the list goes on…

Tried not to overthink things today. Set up a tripod with my back to the rain and just waited till someone placed themselves in the frame just how I wanted.

A little piece of Guernsey history. Back in my late teens this was our Saturday afternoon cafe of choice for a quick pint and some food. Think it was called Saint Pierre’s Cafe.
Tried to translate the name but all I could get was ‘Wight of the Queen’!

A place I like to visit time and time again for these exact reasons.
