An image from March this year… there’s something about somewhat run-down seaside resorts out of season that really appeals to me.

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8, Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter and Negative Lab Pro plugin with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

15 years ago it was Another Place by Antony Gormley at Crosby beach on Merseyside.

I remember being somewhat underwhelmed by the sculptures and quickly turned my attention to the passing ships.

The MS Norbay is a roll-on/roll-off passenger (ROPAX) vessel built by Van Der Giessen-de Noord N.V. in the Netherlands in 1994 and was, at the time of the photo, employed on P&O Ferries Liverpool – Dublin route.
