Hairy biker
A quick grab shot of a biker with very furry headgear. I was spotted taking the picture and rewarded with a thumbs up. 🙂

Again and again
I’ve posted before, at least once, about revisiting locations and taking the same pictures I always do. The same subjects, and often the same compositions. Some scenes just catch the eye, like this view up the River Wye at Bakewell. Seen before here and here (and probably other times too)

Farm shop
I must apologise for the somewhat concise posts of late. I have a lot of things going on keeping me busy and not much mental capacity remaining to write much on the blog.
Todays I present a picture of Critchlow’s Farm Shop in Bakewell. It took quite some patience to find a moment when there wasn’t a vehicle of some sort driving in front of it!

Packhorse bridge at Bakewell

Bakewell cricket pavillion
There’s not much cricket being played in November (outdoors, at least) so there wasn’t much activity at the pavilion when I walked past. One guy was sat in front reading a newspaper when I approached, but he’d moved on by the time I made some pictures.

A couple more from Bakewell
There will be some more photos to come from my Bakewell visit, but those will be on Tri-X. These two images are the last of the Fuji Pro 400H pictures though.
I like the first one particularly – it came out really nice with nice colour and a ton of detail, including a couple of jack-o-lanterns left over from the previous evening.

Bakewell
A couple of Bakewell scenes for today’s post. The first is a view across the town that can be seen when driving into the town from the north and I made sure that I walked back to the same viewpoint during my visit to make the picture.
This second image is looking north from atop Bakewell Bridge. It’s not a view I remember seeing before, mostly because the route to the car-park veers off from the main road before you cross the bridge and, once you’re on foot, there isn’t much need to walk across the bridge if you’re staying around the town centre as there are other footbridges close to the car-parks.

Pavilion flypast
A lone goose from the RGF (Royal Goose Force) performs a flypast for the lone gent sat reading his paper in front of the cricket pavilion. It shows the traditional dipped-wing position denoting that it’s in the mood for harassing passers-by for bread.
Apologies for the silliness. 🙂
