The find of the day



Today's walk is at Dungeness, next to the nuclear power station. If a photographer fails to find a whole host of interesting stuff to shoot at this location then they may as well throw the towel in. On this visit, instead of concentrating on the obvious: fishing boats that are hauled up onto the shingle beach, I want to photograph buildings. Apart from the power station itself, the area is littered with small structures, either inhabited or abandoned; each one telling a story.

One such such place that we always visited for refreshments is the café adjacent to the railway station, but to our disappointment it is closed. Not being deterred by this setback, we repaired to the nearby pub: Britannia Inn. It turns out to be quite a find as it allows dogs in (which the café didn't), and they do a mean plate of chips as well as good tea/coffee.



24-70mm f/2.8 AF-S Nikkor. 1/320 second at f/5.6. Spot metered from the building in manual mode. ISO 160.
