Happy Dayz, Promenade, 2000

I expect this has happened to most of us. Being grabbed by Mum and having our clothes changed in public. I bet once changed he was also treated to a face wash with a spit-dampened  hankie.

This is a typical visiting family to Blackpool. Mum, Dad, the kid and Granny. A walk along the prom to collect a teddy bear and some prizes, then home by the evening.

I was shooting a lot like this at the time; slow shutter speed with fill in flash to get a combination of sharpness and blur. When I got it right it conveyed some of the energy and vibrancy of Blackpool.
