Denby Dale again

As with yesterday’s post of 35mm photos of Emley Moor, today here are a couple of 35mm shots of Denby Dale (or, more specifcally, the viaduct) taken on the same visit as the medium format pictures I posted here.

In industrial towns

Of the two pictures, the first one (above) is my definite favourite. I also have a medium format version of the same scene but, despite it’s increased resolution and detail, I prefer the more gritty look of the 35mm image. It would perhaps have been nice to have a train crossing the bridge, but my time was limited and I didn’t know the running schedule.

The second shot is another variant of one of the medium format pictures I made (which can be seen in the linked post above), but taken from a vantage point a little further up the road.

Denby Dale viaduct

I took the following photographs shortly after the Empley Moor images from yesterday’s post.

Denby Dale viaduct

The town of Denby Dale sits a few miles to the south of Empley Moor and has a wonderful victorian viaduct spanning the valley in which it sits.

Up above the streets and houses

The location of some homes beside the viaduct made for some interesting pictures.
