Ferry workers waiting for passengers to board at dawn. Kos Town, Kos, Dodecanese Islands, Greece, September 2023. We were disappointed that our ferry time from Kos to Lipsi had changed from 0900 to 0700. We had to get up around 0530, which felt like 0330 due to the timezone change from the UK. But we were rewarded with the sun rising as we arrived at the port, and a memorable start to the ferry ride.

The whalebone arch, Whitby, Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom, June 2021. Early evening shadows lie on the base of the arch, through which Whitby abbey is visible. In the 18th and 19th centuries the whaling industry thrived in Whitby. Dozens of ships braved the Arctic seas off Greenland to hunt these elusive leviathans for their lucrative whale oil. Many crews never came back. Whaling was a chance for great wealth for those who managed a successful catch. On a fleet’s return to port, eager onlookers would watch for the telltale sign of good news: Crews would tie a whale’s jaw bone atop the ship’s mast as a sign that they had killed the animal and not the other way around.

Ruined house on the Kalistrata, Symi, Dodecanese Islands, Greece, September 2019. A fig tree covers part of the frontage.The Kalistrata is the main pedestrian route uphill from Gialos to Chorio – lots of steps! Symi still has a significant number of abandoned houses; the population is lower than it used to be, as economic decline set in with the end of the wooden shipbuilding industry, and also when German troops left in WW2 they blew up a munitions dump in Chorio.

Hazy South Pier, Bridlington, monochrome. Bridlington harbour, Bridlington,Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom, March 2022. This breakwater – the South Pier aka Gummers Wharf - is very much the working end of the harbour; Bridlington is one of Europe’s biggest shellfish ports, and the largest lobster port. The photo was taken looking towards the sun, which is obscured by a hazy sea fret on a bright day; so the boundary between sea and sky is not clear. Black and white version of colour original. Available in colour, black and white, and sepia.
