![]() When I started this webpage it was intended to share the photographs of Northumberland that I took in the 1970's. Since then I have re-kindled my interest in photography and have added other more general photographs, and many 360° panoramas. These are lower down the page. My interest in photography is primarily recording social history, the way people live, in the belief that it will be fascinating in years to come when things have changed. I wished more people photographed everyday life. There is no need to try and be arty-farty. With my black & white 'Fishing' photos and my photos of Tyneside etc. I feel that I have achieved my aim. Way back in the early 70's I was a long-haired, drop-out. No, not a drug crazed hippie into loud pop music, nothing like that. I just wanted to help my new-born son develop, take photographs to record life in Northumberland and walk along the beach. More people should do it ;-) |
![]() Northumberland is the northernmost county of England. It is on the east coast just below the Scottish border. It has bleak deserted moors, empty beaches, the Roman Wall and lots of castles, a great place if you like quiet walking holidays. Most of my early photos were taken around Seahouses, a fishing harbour just down the coast from Lindisfarne and Bamburgh Castle. If you are ever up that way make sure you call in at The Olde Ship Hotel, Seahouses for beer/lunch, it's a living museum of the local traditional fishing industry. While researching my family tree I recently found that my Gt. Gt. Gt. Grandfather, Robert Adams, born 1787, was a 'Mariner' from North Sunderland, (which, to most people, is the same as Seahouses). I also had a Great-Grand Aunt Isabella Loud, (nee Walker), who was born in North Sunderland in 1878. I am amazed and delighted to be able to claim some my ancestors came from up there. |

Since 2013, and up to 2018, I have been subject to identity theft, impersonation on internet, threatening and offensive, abusive emails.
They are pretty sick. The guy doing this has set up webpages supposedly set up by me, that offer my photographs to anyone who wants them, and/or have been abusive.
He uses email address that incorporate my name.
This person is Chris Robinson, a 78 year old, (2023), ex-art teacher, who hangs around Newcastle and Chiang Mai, Thailand. I have never met this guy and had no involvement with him whatsoever until he took a personal dislike to me in 2013. Here are the full details of the problem. Another person has had similar harassment from this guy, you can check his blog, and learn more about his harassment. 1st Sept. 2013. Robinson has just emailed me from Thailand telling me that he has set up another website using my photos, (and another using tunes from my tunebook webpage). He is using the email address, pete.loud.photographer@gmail.com. If you receive a weird email, it is not from me. The police are involved, so if you receive anything that is offensive or libellous please forward it to me. |
