Salvation Army citadel

Another cheeky digital picture today – mostly because I’ve been out at the cinema* and don’t have time to write about the pictures I’d originally intended..

This is the somewhat derelict former Salvation Army citadel in Sheffield city centre. There has been some sort of legal wrangling over the use of the building for years now, all while the building slips into further disrepair. This is a shame as it’s a handsome looking building, something that the city should cherish. I hope it can be repurposed to some good use while maintaining the beautiful architecture.

* to see The Substance, which was gruesome fun.

Today was the day I picked for my annual pilgrimage to Mablethorpe on the Lincolnshire coast. Although the weather forecast stated good weather for the location, it was drizzly, grey and even foggy for much of the 80-odd mile journey there, only brightening up after I crossed the Wolds to the coastal area. By the time I arrived it was a beautiful day with nary a cloud in the sky. Although, being a photographer, a few clouds to give the skies some interest wouldn’t have gone amiss. 🙂

Normally I tend to stay in Mablethorpe itself during these day trips, but today I set off early so that I could walk down the coastal path to Sutton-on-Sea, where I shot the picture below.

I shot four rolls of B&W film (using the GW690, so 32 shots in total), but none of those are developed or scanned yet. So in the meantime, here’s a digital photo from the outing.
