On a sunny day, what better than to hop on a train and go down to the coast in search of the faded and/or tacky glories of the great English seaside.

great stuff Antony.  Very nostalgic.  I like the empty deck chairs pic best, but they all look great together.

These work great as a series.  I especially like the color.  My favorite image also is the one with the chairs looking out to the sea.  Well seen.

Great series... I love the colours!
I really like Brighton, It's a real shame the other pier got burnt... it was so beautiful!
