Portlife

Calais Ferry Port

Ferry Ports are strange places – the fences, the barbed wire, the surveillance cameras – the sheer emptiness.

They feel like sovereign territories – not connected or belonging to the country they are located in. Calais Ferry Port is a perfect example of ‘ferry port weirdness’.

A lone gull has the temerity to invade the emptiness.

Pilotis everywhere. JG Ballard would have had a field day here.
