I’ve already posted about this trip to Newark Air Museum on the day I visited, where I shared a few digital photos I’d taken. I’ll not go over the events again, but I’ll post some of the film photos I also took during the visit today, and over the next day or two.

I took these pictures (indeed six of the shots on this roll of Tri-X) while walking between Leeds railway station and The Carriageworks, where the Photo North photography festival has been held the past couple of years.
I took a slightly meandering route, meaning I traversed this street off the more well traveled path, meaning I got to see these old buildings sitting nicely in the good light.

This was one of those cases where, as soon as I saw the scene, I thought “There’s a picture!“.
The hunch shouldered look immediately brought to mind the iconic scene of the vampire, Nosferatu, ascending a staircase as a shadow. In this case it’s not a member of the undead blocking the light, but inventor and engineer, James Watt, whose statue stands on a plinth just out of frame. The second shot shows the culprit in better detail.

I think I’ve photographed this old factory obscured by trees at least three times (although two of those were on the same day, but on different cameras). You can see another one here, which I took a couple of years ago.

A new cluster of office and accommodation buildings is under development close to West Bar at the edge of the city centre. The buildings at centre, and centre right are two of the first ones to take shape, but more are being built (the foreground buildings are older, though still quite recent, developments).
It will be interesting to see the area when the work is complete, and I expect there will be new photographic opportunities that arise, replacing the older, run-down industrial building that once held the location.
