Three pictures of bits of fence on the Trans-Pennine Trail that I shot during a walk at the end of October. The weather wasn’t the best and I don’t tend to shoot (expensive!) colour film on days such as this, but it had been loaded in the camera a while before so I decided to make use of it anyway.
Something good that happened today…
After a run of pretty dismal, dull, grey weather – including yesterday where it also rained as well as being murky – today was a little brighter. Not exactly sunny, but there was a little structure in the clouds and occasional splashes of brightness where the sun found a way through the cloud. This provided an opportunity to go out and make some photographs. I didn’t have any great project in mind, and if I’m honest, my mind wasn’t really in the right place for it, but I got myself dressed an headed out anyway. In the end I shot 20 frames of the roll of Ilford HP5+. I’ll be interested to see how they turn out after I’ve finished the roll and developed it, but I had promising feelings about a lot of them. We shall see.

Looking out of the window all day when am out from work.
Just watching for some light, it’s very grey in the valleys of West Yorkshire right now.
But getting that moment, even an hour where you commit yourself, boots on and snapping. It’s a wonderful time.

Indeed, getting that good light is worth taking advantage of. I’ve also resigned myself to the fact that there will regularly be periods of constant overcast days though, and I need to take advantage of those too.

Yeah, same.
I’ve decided that if it’s dry, and my camera is safe I’m going to get out tomorrow.
Nothing is better for my wellbeing than taking a walk, slowing things down and finding some opportunities.
