Description
I used intentional camera movement (ICM) with a 15 second exposure to make this gorgeous vibrant abstract of sunset at Whitesands beach in Pembrokeshire on an evening in late March, 2025. Out on the very western tip of Wales (nearly), the sun’s afterglow often hangs around well after the sun goes down, producing some spectacular views. Sweeping the camera slowly from left to right with a long lens from the top of the beach has produced this fabulous vibrant result. Limited edition of 250. Size 60 x 34cms.

In another life, I was parent to three growing sons, taught environmental sociology to undergraduate students and worried about the fate of the planet. I began taking photos as an escape and relaxation around 2009 and have been doing it ever since. With cataracts in both eyes as a result of an autoimmune disease, I could see the world more clearly through the lens. Now, with children grown into adults and cataracts removed, I have kept the habit of seeing the world around me through a viewfinder.
In this life, I live in Pembrokeshire and take photos all year round, indulging my love of beaches and their inhabitants whenever I have time. Spring and Autumn are my favourite seasons and many of my photos are of the mini-landscapes populated by the flora and fauna of the intertidal zone. My anxiety about the fate of the planet has been tempered (if only a little) by observing the capacity of coastal plants and animals to survive and flourish in this harshest of environments. I believe that nature is resilient and if given a chance would eventually recover from the depredations of human culture.
