Revisiting my first personal project

By Tessa Bunney on 1 April 2015

You never forget your first personal project. In 1990 I bought my first car (a slightly unreliable orange Citroen 2CV for £300) and travelled around the coast of England and Wales photographing the remaining manned lighthouses.

“I thought I had a job for life” Portland Bill lighthouse, Aug 1991 from the series Living in a Lamp Post. Portland Bill was automated in 1996 and the process of automating all the lighthouses finished in 1998.

I’ll be sharing photos from this story this coming week over on Instagram @tessabunney
