February is a surprisingly good time to head to the seaside for a weekend getaway. Sure, it was a little chilly, but we were lucky to have two sunny days in which to explore the rich and beautiful history of the seaside town of Hastings.
Here are some photos of a trip to Hastings, on the South Coast of England – all taken with a Canon EOS 450D.
