Brighton West Pier – Brighton, East Sussex – England – UK
A dilapidated iron skeleton is all that remains of Brighton’s “West Pier”. The West Pier thrived from its opening in 1866 through its closing in 1975. Millions walked the wooden promenades and enjoyed the fresh ocean air. The pier, which included a concert hall, fun fair and tearoom to name a few, was full of activity. Since its eventual closing, the West Pier has slowly given way to the relentless elements of the seaside. Wind, water and fires have all contributed to the pier’s demise. I find what remains to be quite beautiful, and thought a very long exposure would be suiting to this once great structure that has been tested by time.
