All Traffic

May 30, 2020 by Phil Kneen Photography

Tomorrow should have been the start of the 2020 TT motorcycle races on the Isle of Man, AKA, The Road Racing Capital of The World. I went to the grandstand this morning, the start and finish line of the 37.73 miles course, an area which would normally be buzzing with pre-race (well, the first week is for practice and qualifying laps) noise and activity, even at 8am.

At the moment, I’m on a large ferry – I’m comfortable, and I’m still able to […]

The New Normal

April 25, 2020 by Phil Kneen Photography

I’m fortunate; I have a part-time job that gets me out of the house everyday, a virtual hall-pass that allows me to drive the corridors of the Isle of Man with my camera. For most other residents, it’s been a long few weeks, thus far. On Friday 27th March, the Isle of Man started an indefinite lockdown – nobody in and nobody out (unless you want to stay out).  I’d already started my own personal document of the COVID19 pandemic […]
