I joined 4 other photographers to capture the essence of the Brighton Festival. / We positioned ourselves at various points along the route to ensure complete coverage of the event. / Once the proccesion had passed we would leapfrog past the other photographers to our next station. / Between us we took over 1500 photographs. This was the 1st time I had covered an event in this way / Hard work but fun Panasonic fz50
This guy was skating on the seafront promenade in Brighton, I thought this was kinda cool, he didn’t land this jump, but he did look like he was about to break out in the night fever dance, so it’s all cool! Minor work in photoshop! Shutter Speed: 625/100000 second / Aperture: F/5.6 / Focal Length: 55 mm / ISO Speed: 100 / Date Taken: Oct 12, 2009, 6:08:31 PM
This is a photograph I took on Hove Beach, I then rotated 90 degrees. I wanted a perspective abstract look and composed the shot so the layer of textures were of equal depth, walkway, beech, sea & sky. Only a very slight contrast in post editing, nothing more. / Photograph taken Oct 09 Alixzandra / Featured Oct 09 All things Brighton Beautiful / Landscape…. /
Yay or Nay? I’m experimenting with some more extreme PP ideas, braking some of my own rules. Let me know if you think they work or not. Any ideas or suggestions more than welcome! I was waiting for the rest of my family to come back from Brighton Pier (dog-sitting, as dogs are not allowed on the pier!), when I spotted this couple of friends casually chatting in front of me. They couldn’t be more relaxed or less self-conscious. I guess it’s so easy to go un-noticed in such a busy crowded place :-) [Sony a350, Sigma 17-70@24mm, f:5.6, 1/160sec, ISO-100]

Hemmed in by the South Downs, Brighton & Hove is a diverse and vibrant coastal city. It’s an incredibly laid back and fun place to reside in, live nearby or visit. It’s full of life all year round and has been a constant source of inspiration for residents, visitors and a whole raft of artists throughout its existence. It’s widely reported that Brighton succeeds as a modern city because it was built on the principle of pleasure rather than industry.
Whilst cities such as London, Manchester and Birmingham thrive on their industrial heritage, Brighton relied upon the healing properties of the sea during Queen Victoria’s reign and has continued to thrive as a premier pleasure destination.
As per every city, Brighton doesn’t satisfy all and has its fair share of detractors. This group aims to celebrate the good, bad and fabulous that Brighton has to offer.
If you are inspired by Brighton & Hove and happy to share your images, thoughts and artwork then submit them here.
We host monthly avatar challenges as well as specific challenges focusing on all aspects of Brighton life including architecture, people, beach life, Pride, parks and gardens etc
