Beach comber...


Early morning on Boscombe sea front, and the tractor is out raking
the beach in preparation for today's Lifeguard competition.
This scene won't be visible much longer, as the pier head is to
be demolished as part of a renovation project for the area, which is
due to start in the next month or so. The pier enterance, which dates
from 1958-60 will survive as it is now a Grade 2 listed building.
Also included in the project will be an artificial surf reef, reputed
to be the largest in Europe.

This blog will be used to visually document the re-development.

Your photographs are amazing! I've really enjoyed looking at your blog and seeing local sites. I especially like the deer photos and the Red Arrows, ooh and also the tractor on the beach. Hope you've sorted out your digital camera problems?
