Sign the Petition We demand an Independent Scrutiny into the A21 Roadworks that cost Hastings millions

chng.it/HppvCgYD6P. A very long drawn out and expensive project. Appears to have been very mismanaged, so I've signed this petition. #hastings #stleonards

An original digital painting showing a scene I observed on the Lake #Garda ferry. A man with his dog, looking out at #Sirmione as the ferry leaves port. #Italy #dog #Bluesky #art

Bottle Alley, #Hastings. Built, by the 'Concrete King' Sidney Little in the 1930's it is part of a 500m double decker promenade. The back wall has panels with different coloured broken glass, hence it's name. #blackandwhite, #reflection, #architecture

The #beach at #Hastings is all shingle, except at low tide when the sand is exposed. This pebble in isolation made a nice focal point for a different kind of #seascape. #photography #bluesky

A view of the River Brede valley looking east towards #Rye and the #Romney Marshes. Once an estuary, two big storms in 1287 significantly changed the #Kent and #EastSussex coastline. The old cliffs can be seen and Rye was an island. #photo #landscape #history

A dull, windy and cold day but some hardy dog walkers and the low tide made a nice composition, I thought. #beach #dogs #walking #UK #Winchelsea

A #digital #painting of the #Solent and #Portsmouth. The original photograph this was based on was taken at #Seaview, #IsleofWight. Copies for sale here: tinyurl.com/46jvjzvp

A view the seafront architecture which is part of the #DeLaWarrPavilion #Bexhill. Converted to #blackandwhite and increased contrast, and left a touch of colour in the #union flag.

#Hastings Old Town from the East Hill. This is a much photographed view, the reward for walking up the steps to the top or for braving the funicular railway that takes you there. #BeachyHead can be seen in the distance. #photography #landscape

Hi Ben. I use a touch sensitive pad and pen, plus Photoshop to digitally 'paint'. The software allows you to choose different brush types and blending options to recreate a paint like image. It satisfies my need to paint, with the convenience of there being no mess...

Crashing waves and distant clouds. I've always liked the contrast between the rough sea, the #blue sky and the sun highlighted clouds. It seems like they shouldn't be in the same shot. #photo, #waves, #bluesky

A beautiful building, with an awful ground floor cover up. Been like that for years. Be nice if they restored it back.

I've taken photographs of thousands of #seagulls, not deliberately, usually just because they are an ever present part of the scenery in #UK coastal towns. Sometimes though, a seagull becomes the focus of the #photograph. #beach
