The building depicted here was formerly a branch of Yorkshire Bank, but is now a Cafe Nero.

Hull(o) again

Welcome to Hull
This imposing looking structure stands in Hull city centre, and features the Hull City Mosaic, which was commissioned by the Co-Op back in 1963. The building appears to be empty at present, presumably since BHS went out of business in 2016 (from what I can see online, BHS looks to have been the previous tenant).

Hull Maritime Museum
I went to Hull (and back!) the other day to visit a photo exhibition at the HIP gallery. The weather was pretty cold and consisted of sunshine and showers, so I didn’t take as many photos as I might have done otherwise. I still got a few nice shots though (on the roll I’ve had processed – I still have an almost complete roll of 135 HP5+ to finish off and get developed too) from the trusty little Zeiss Mess-Ikonta. This is the Maritime Museum.

Marshmallow Man
Gozer the Gozerian (or an inflatable effigy, at least) stands outside the Winter Gardens in Sheffield.

At the top of the foodchain
I spotted someone in a T-Rex costume amongst the crowds in the Winter Gardens the other week. I took a couple of photos, both of which are very similar – one was with my F70, 50mm f/1.8 & some expired Superia 100 (rated at 64asa), which suffers a little from camera shake as I had to use a pretty slow shutter; and then this one, which was taken with my Olympus 35 RC. Thanks to the Tri-X I was using in the camera, I got a sharper result (I probably shot this at 1/60th).

Walking away from the fun
This photo shows the view from Division Street looking towards the amusements in Barker’s Pool, Sheffield that were there as part of the Out of This World event.

Lucky cat
I saw this lucky cat waving away on the counter of a noodle truck the other week and grabbed a quick shot.

The showman
This chap was running the flea circus tent at the Out of This World event the other week. He kindly posed for me and then, when I apologised for the additional time it had taken to get the shot with my film camera, got to talking about how he’s recently had an old camera of his own restored and was very impressed by the photos. A nice chap.
