Margate Beach

MARGATE, Kent, UK: 21 May 2020: Visitors to Margate's Main Sands beach surrounded by white cliffs during the heatwave in Britain.

Margate is a beautiful small city about 2 hours away from London on the train sitting in England's east coast - perfect for a day trip!

Unlike Brighton, London's closest beach town, Margate's beaches are sandy and extensive.

I have really been struggling with a slump in my photography, i had no enthusiasm to get out and found it a real struggle. Tonight i decided i had to get out and shoot, i gathered all my gear, jumped in the car and headed out to capture Sunset at Margate, Kent.

I parked a few streets away and walked down to the seafront and thus avoided any car parking charges
