Steel City Snapper photography
35mm, medium format and large format film photography (with the odd bit of digital every now and then…)
I thought I’d dig something older out of the pile today, so here’s a shot taken on a trip to liverpool in late 2016. I was with my wife, so it wasn’t a photography outing, and on those occasions I feel a little guilty about taking my time over shots, so a lot of them are taken on the fly and grabbed when I can, as was the case here. There’s undoubtedly a better shot to be had of this location, but I’m not too unhappy about this.

This art installation of folded cloth lattices resides in the stairwell of Sheffield Central Library. I’m not sure how long it’s been there, but I took more photos of it a couple of years ago. They remind me of clouds when viewed from the side.

A few of the buildings clustered around St. Paul’s Square in Sheffield city centre, including the distinctive “Cheesegrater” car-park..

A bit of an oldie today (well, if just over a year can be classed as such). This is the staircase in the Museum of Liverpool. I spent more time taking photographs of this staircase than I did looking at the exhibits!

I took this photo back in January. I’d visited the villages of High and Low Bradfield on the same day (and fallen flat on my face while striding down the steep road to Low Bradfield!) and stopped off at Damflask reservoir afterwards where I grabbed a few shots.

There are alway pictures to be found in run-down industrial areas. Not sure if they appeal to everyone, but I like them.

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

Well, not in this blog unfortunately, but there were certainly prizes to be had at the stall in today’s picture. I’ll leave it to others to judge the quality levels.
