The Story: Mark often drives to the coast before sunrise. This shot was taken at dawn at Shingle Street on the Suffolk Coast. He loves the curve of the beach and the simplicity of the lines. In a world filled with billions of people Mark is always amazed that he’s often the only person on the beach for hours. Depending on the location and the conditions it can feel incredibly tranquil, while it can also feel a little scary at times. These emotions are often conveyed in Marks work. This photograph is no exception.

Mark Z Alvarez, originally from East London, has made Cambridge his home for over twenty years and is an established member of its vibrant and thriving arts community.
Mark has always been passionate about the arts, whether it’s music, theatre, literature, painting or photography. He was in three operas at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, as a child. However, his primary passion has always been photography, with early influences being Ansell Adams, Robert Doisneau and Henri Cartier Bresson.
Discouraged from pursuing arts qualifications at school, Mark decided to become a professional photographer later in life. He is self taught and now exhibits in Cambridge and London.
Due to his love of travel Mark frequently enjoys discovering new, breathtaking and thought-provoking locations. Often, his subject matter is chosen and captured to provide a surreal and other-worldly atmosphere intended to stimulate the viewer's imagination.
Mark is also a management team member of Cambridge Open Studios, a prestigious organisation founded nearly fifty years ago that represents over five hundred artists and makers.
