A few random photographs of Southend Seafront in Essex. Photos taken at the start of August 2004 on a trip to the sunny seaside to see the Illuminations! The beach was packed, so we avoided it, but apart from that we had a good time. Photos include the pier, seafront and the rides and rollercoasters of Adventure Island theme park, pics taken both in the day, at sunset and at night.

This is a ride shaped like a scorpion, this was quarter of a second exposure late at night.

This ride is shaped like a claw and spins you upside down! This was quarter of a second exposure late at night.
