Location: / St. Margaret’s Bay, Kent, England Map: / Multimap Date and Time: / 27 January 2008, 7.40 a.m. Camera details: / ISO 200 : f/22 : 10 seconds : 18mm : Nikon D40 : Nikon 18-55mm lens Shot narrative: / The calm stillness of the water is offset against the crashing waves against the rocks. It was a cold day and the tide was far out meaning that parts of the beach that are usually cut off by the tide were accessable and I could walk a mile or so along the beach from the car park to reach this spot.

Location: / St. Margaret’s Bay, Kent, England Map: / Multimap Date and Time: / 16 August.2008, 5.49 a.m. Camera details: / ISO 200 : f/22 : 4 seconds : 18mm : Nikon D40 : Nikon 18-55mm lens Shot narrative: / This for me is what makes it all worth while. For every 10 or so times I set the alarm early and creep off out into the darkness, I get a reward of the most amazing of natural light shows. St Margarets Bay this morning was the best i’ve had the good fortune to see and suddenly the 4.a.m. alarm call seemed to be worth it. Photographs from St. Margarets Bay, Kent

Location: / St. Margaret’s Bay, Kent, England Map: / Multimap Date and Time: / 16 August.2008, 6.22 a.m. Camera details: / ISO 200 : f/22 : 0.78 second : 18mm : Nikon D40 : Nikon 18-55mm lens Shot narrative: / Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond, bought one of the 4 “White Cliffs” houses at St Margarets Bay from Noel Coward in 1951. Noel Coward complained that the Bay had become ’ a beach crowded with noisy hoi polloi’ (you can just hear him saying that). Ian Fleming’s vacation house in Jamaica was famously called “Goldeneye” and the title was taken to connect the two properties with a slight helping of the Golden tones in the shot. Just down the road from me at Canterbury is the Duck Inn, near Bridge. Fleming went to the pub often, and describes in You Only Live Twice how the young James Bond was tutored by his aunt in a cottage “hard by the attractive Duck Inn”. Ian Fleming’s inspiration for Bond’s codename derived from the number of the local bus: 007 which drove past the pub. Photographs from St. Margarets Bay, Kent

Location: / St. Margaret’s Bay, Kent, England Map: / Multimap Date and Time: / 16 August 2008, 6.14 a.m. Camera details: / ISO 200 : f/22 : 1/4 second : 18mm : Nikon D40 : Nikon 18-55mm lens Shot narrative: / Known as White Cliffs Country and one of England’s most famous natural landmarks according to the Natural Trust, the cliffs extend a few miles to the north to St Margaret’s Bay. Captured in the early morning light the glow of these magnificent cliffs is amazing. Unfortunately due to erosion, parts of these cliffs are falling into the sea and the section of beach I usually visit at St Margaret’s Bay differs each time I go with new rocks that were once cliff now at the water’s edge.

This shot shows the terrain of St Margaret’s Bay well and it’s a good 15-20 minutes “hike” from the main beach to get this far. Photographs from St. Margarets Bay, Kent

Location / St Margaret’s Bay, Kent, England August 2009: This was taken just under an hour before sunrise at 4.45 a.m. The 67 second exposure highlighted the fact that the clouds appeared to be moving faster than the water.
