Photography & Film — United Kingdom
Chasing light on the water and everywhere it leads.
I'm Charlie Tyler — a sailor first, a photographer because of it. This is a fresh start for an old site: real frames from a decade behind the camera, rebuilt properly.
Selected work
A few frames to start with
Sailing off the Solent, sunsets on the Norfolk coast, wildlife, London streets and mountains further afield — the full set lives in the gallery.
About
Semi-professional photographer. Fully committed sailor.
I picked up a camera to record the places sailing was taking me, and it became the other half of the hobby. Self-taught, mostly outdoors, always chasing whatever the weather is doing to the light.
The site originally ran as a 52-week project — a new post every week for a year. This rebuild keeps the best of that archive and drops the rest.
