The Turner Gallery reflected in the pool left by the receding tide. The Kings Stairs is a great place to sit and watch the #sunset #margate #kent #thanet #reflections #travel #tourism #travel #staycation 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 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jWmO8X8Yx8
