Large storm waves crashing over Seaham Pier and lighthouse during Storm Arwen

TheCoast

Sea stacks, storm swells, and quiet mornings along the North East coast — twelve images shaped by tide, weather, and waiting for the right light.

About this collection

I come back to the coast more than anywhere else. Half the work is just waiting — for the tide to turn, for a gap in the cloud, for the light to do something worth standing in the cold for. Some mornings nothing happens.
