Birnbeck Pier in Weston-super-Mare was doomed. It's derelict and unsafe, but now there's a plan to restore it to its former glory. #BirnbeckPier #BirnbeckIsland #WestonSuperMare

A black and white photograph on the last piece of exposed shoreline at Birkett Road, Weston, Somerset, UK - as the tide rises and I have make my retreat. The Bristol Channel is exhilarating to be up close with, though you must respect its relentless power and speed.

A colour photograph of the Bristol Channel taken at high tide four oclock-ish in the afternoon 18th April 24. Quite a windy day which has streaked the clouds into streams in the sky, over the channel and the Welsh coast, in the background. In the foreground is what currently remains of the pier and the buildings on Birnbeck Island.

A black and white 4x5 photograph of a gnarly old tree stump, left by tide, time and weather, on the grassy area of Sandbay Beach, Kewstoke, Weston, Somerset, UK. In the middle of the picture to the left side is Birnbeck Island and pier. To the right is the waters of the Bristol Channel on which is a sailing boat. There is some diffuse sunlight though the sky is mainly cloudy.
