Another photo from my walk around Neepsend the other Sunday. The area is a treasure-trove of little details – remnants of its industrial heritage.

Three bicycles
I liked the arrangement of the three bikes in this shot, although it probably worked better via my eyes than in the resulting shot, with the rearmost cycle looking a little insignificant. I like the sub-framing though

Grainy days
Given that I didn’t post anything to the blog yesterday (I left it until late in the evening and then forgot and went to bed!), it’s a double-post day today.
I’m not quite sure why the shot below has such pronounced grain (it was taken with the same roll of HP5+ as many of the other recent shots I’ve posted, and they don’t have nearly so much). Maybe the snow and mist threw the camera’s meter out and then I overcompensated the exposure at the scanning stage or something. I guess I could re-scan the negative and see (but I probably won’t).
Grain isn’t something I dislike though, so not to worry. 🙂

Striking a nice pose
This is one of a trio of sculpted metal figures that stand alongside the Trans-Pennine Trail at Killamarsh in Derbyshire.

Students’ Union
The Students’ Union building at Sheffield University. Taken on a walk with my family back last summer.

Everything is connected
On the Trans-Pennine trail at Killamarsh, on the remaining part of a railway bridge structure, is this piece of street art.

Renewables
This renewable energy facility has only recently been completed. It reminds me a little of the facility in Stranger Things.

Another chain
I thought I’d post another photo of a chain today – actually part of the same fence I posted a photo of yesterday. I was quite surprised to see that this photo AND the one I posted here yesterday made it into Flickr’s Explore section today. I don’t tend to see many of my photo’s in Explore, so to get two consecutive shots in there on the same day was quite an unusual thing to happen (for me, at least).

Chain and post
A pretty simple composition for today’s post – a low chain fence in the grounds of a nearby church – but one I like thanks to the light and the lovely look of Ilford HP5+

Barcode forest
The term ‘forest’ in the title up there is somewhat misleading. This is actually a small plantation of pines nestled into a meander of the River Rother not far from Eckington. It’s a place I’ve never visited before, but it has potential for some nice photos – it certainly did on the snowy, misty day when this photo was taken.
