Seagulls Are Magic WEST

Many years ago, I saw the simple message, ‘Seagulls Are Magic’, scrawled on a sea wall in the seaside resort of Whitley Bay on the northeast coast of England. It made me smile and I duly recorded it with my camera for posterity. You will soon discover, when you look at this series of images, that ‘Seagulls Are Magic’ has nothing whatsoever to do with seagulls. However, the sentiment of that exclamation, of just being, in that place and at that moment, is very much the same.


'WEST' is the first volume from a collection of images of some of the people and places that have caught my eye, inspired me and amused me over the last 35 years.
