There is an ulterior motive. We want photographers to come in 2017.

The Shell Project - Originally started as an exercise to test some of the features of my new Casio point and shoot camera but turned into an extended study of a single abalone shell. The series shows the results of photographing that shell at different focusing modes and lighting conditions.
Pam picked up this shell from a beach as a child. I guess we all did that. The difference is that Pam still has her collection.

04. Thames Barge Driving (Shell Bay)
Watermen and Lightermen - Watermen carry passengers whilst Lightermen carry goods and cargoes.
From ancient times the Thames has been the main highway for moving people and goods from the Estuary to London and beyond. The use of ferries was the only link across the River Thames before the building of the first London Bridge by the Romans. However evidence of the importance of the River was provided by Stow, who in his survey of 1598 related that some 40,000 men earned a living on or about the River. The Act of 1514 was passed by Parliament which regulated the fares charged on the River Thames. However the Watermen who carried passengers continued to act independently and an Act of 1555 appointed Rulers of all Watermen and Wherrymen working between Gravesend and Windsor, thus the Company of Watermen and Lightermen was born. The Act of 1555 also introduced apprenticeships for a term of one year for all boys wishing to learn the watermen’s trade and this was extended to seven years by a further Act in 1603.
