leave everywhere
July 19, 2010
. . . . . . . . . .
it’s no secret that i’ve been aching to get to the ocean this summer, so i made it happen this weekend. a perfect day spent walking around with my cameras, reading a book from cover to cover, fresh oysters, a fresh crab and mayonnaise sandwich on the sea wall, cold beers, coconut ice cream, cooling off in the water.
this song by toro y moi was on repeat all day.
then back to the city and the week ahead, arms and face tingling from the sun.
(i’ll be sharing many photos from the beach this week … i’ve got a lot)

the blue hour 
oh now that looks like the perfect way to spend a weekend.
perfect, just perfect. i’m looking forward to seeing more pictures!
love these photos and the feeling behind them! they are very reminiscent of your photos from the cape last year. glad you had a nice little getaway. how do you always get your film back so fast?!
Hooray for the beach!
Somehow summer seems incomplete without a trip to see the ocean. Glad you got to visit.
Summer bliss!
So, so beautiful.
Whitstable? There’s a lovely old-fashioned sweet shop on the high street. Whenever I visit the town (my family have a flat there), I go straight to the market, buy some oyters and eat them on the beach looking out to sea. Bliss!
I love photos for the beach even though they make me ache for it even more.
looks and sounds absolutely wonderful.
Sounds heavenly!
i’m big on your trips by train.
ferry, i think you need ocean in your life.
Lovely, as usual. Where were you?
i would have loved to tag along. sounds perfect.
so good and yet another place that I am ashamed to say I have never been to.
so dreamy. second best to actually being there.
you captured this so well. i feel the wonderful atmosphere there.
That’s mad, we’ve been listening to that song by Toro Y Moi for a week or so in the office non-stop…
i just love
that title.
i too
have been
dreaming
of some time
by the sea.
amazing
photos.
Yep, the pictures + that Toro Y Moi song is a great match !
oh so beautiful. can’t wait to see more, brian!
so darn good, brian.
this set is the perfect counterpoint to the wellfleet pictures.
you found yourself your new summer muse.
The next lovely sunny day (rain, rain go away) I’m heading to Galveston. I can’t wait to wiggle my toes in the sand. I had this planned already but seeing these photos this week will make sure I make it happen.
Beautiful photos as always Brian. I’m so glad you were able to get down to the sea for a bit. It’s so invigorating to breath the salty air. Love it!
beautiful set of photos, brian
and i’ve been liking your “pinterest” inspiration board
now you’ve got me dreaming of the seaside….
and dreaming of leaving everywhere *great song by the way*
looking forward to seeing more photos from your salt and sand adventures.
Looks amazing ;)
I love it all ! Where is it ?

Just out of interest where were you?
I must have been away fromt the U.K for too long as I can’t recall any place looking like this!
You are making em home sick!!
You blog and photos are a great inspiration.
Thanks for sharing
How are your photos always so beautiful, Brian? If only my Holga photos could turn out a fraction as lovely as yours.
Goodness, this makes me so happy.
I love your film pictures
I love the first two photographs (feet in water).
It’s something I would do myself =)
