An epic sunrise in Paignton this morning…

Posted on by Simon Day in Landscape, Photography

The colours were exploding, the waves were crashing and the coffee was smashing 😀☕️😀

As soon as I woke up I could see that the colours were likely to explode in the sky. I grabbed a quick flask of coffee and headed down to Paignton Pier as quickly as possible. On arrival I was greeted with high waves, surfers and a few other photographers.

I’ve never had so many keeper shots in one session but out of them all, this one really stood out the most.

One of the best things about working in Devon

Posted on by Simon Day in Photography

I loving living and working in Devon. When you go out and stretch your legs, you’re never quite sure what you might see while you’re out.

I went out yesterday afternoon and came across two seals, one of which was very interested in me and my camera…

When it comes to seals, you should never swim with them, feed them or try to disturb them. I was stood in one place and the seal came right up to me. I admit, I have never been this close before, but that is what makes living here so brilliant, lots of chances to get to experience the things you’d love to experience.

What a cracking week it has been at the Paignton Regatta. Last night there was Klassica and Wrong Jovi performing live on the Riviera FM stage. There was a huge turn out for this and it was a great evening of entertainment!

There is still a few tribute bands to go; Bee Gees, Take That and Elvis. Check the Paignton Regatta website for more details.

Here are a few of my photos from the evening…

Some of you may know that I co-host the #TorbayHour radio show on Riviera FM on Mondays. Rivera FM has a stage and live music will be going on all week. I went there yesterday and it was a really great day with lots of good music.

These were some of the pictures I took…

The live music carries on all week on Paignton Green from 10am each day.

A new website went live today

Posted on by Simon Day in Web Design

No 87 is a traditional B&B in the heart of Wellswood, Torquay.

The client wanted a simple, clean, traditional looking website that matched their colours but was also within their budget. They wanted to able to update the website themselves so WordPress was the content management system of choice.

Feature wise, they wanted an ‘availability’ page which they could ‘easily’ update themselves. Most importantly they wanted people to know that they can get the best prices for the B&B by booking direct. This was something that the client wanted all over the pages and on every page.

The client is very happy with how the website looks and feels, it was exactly what they wanted, down to the last line of code.
