Last year I had the absolute privilege of meeting Pete Robinson at his North Shields office. He showed me his work and I was completely blown away — the way he captures the life, history, and people of our fishing community is like nothing else. Since then, I’ve been a true fan.
This week Pete gifted me his book, Harvest from the Deep — and honestly, it means the world. A beautiful hardback (124 pages, A4), it tells the story of the fishing industry with so much heart and respect. Pete, you are my hero. Thank you for everything you do for North Shields and for shining such a powerful light on our community. 🙌
👉 Go and see his exhibition Harvest from the Deep at the Old Low Light Heritage Centre, North Shields Fish Quay, 22 July – 30 August 2025.
👉 You can buy the book for £15 (collection in North Shields) or £21 (posted) through Eye of the Tyne Photography.
Please, support Pete and our local artists — this is our story, told beautifully.
