This photograph is from ‘Ghost in the Shell’, an on-going series that explores the after life of organic objects found at the tide-line. Although inanimate now, these objects once had a life: shells once housed molluscs and fragments of chalk were made from tiny marine creatures and the calcareous remains of algae.

Using slow shutter speeds, I contrast the stillness of the objects with the movement of seawater as a ghostly echo of the life these objects once had. Days when I have been content to concentrate on these little dramas instead of the bigger vistas are among my favourites.
