In July our niece got married down on the Isle of Wight. Of course I took pictures at the wedding, but on the Fuji, but on the Sunday Phil and I went off to the seaside at Shanklin for a couple of hours and I took along the Minolta Riva Mini with a roll of Kodak Portra 400 in it.
It was a lovely day and Shanklin was the epitome of British seaside resort, and very nicely kept too. I think it suited being shot on film.
A Harley Davidson chapter rode into town while we were there
Love the sound of the engines

I agree, most suitable for film. I have never been to the IOW, one I missed! π
Best wishes, Pete.

It looks so inviting, Fraggle. Just when I was hoping for a late winter, we already have snow in the forecast for this week… I’d rather be at that beach! π Hugs.

The first shot takes the prize from me, very 70’s I thought.
If you ever go back make sure you go to Ventnor and check out Burts Beer, they used to make a great bitter that I lapped up (once I’d fallen on the floor) on my short 8 month stay on the Island π

I’m sure we will return as Phil’s sister lives there and her son is getting married there next year, will remember to go to Ventnor!

Soothing blues. It is a lovely memory. It brings me memories of the smell of the sand and a soft breeze.
