Haworth 1940s Weekend - Faces

18 May 2014 6:27PM   Views : 492 Unique : 372

I have a part time project running at the moment - Faces - and I'm gathering pictures of people, primarily of fantastic faces. The potential of expressions and emotions is almost without limit, so today's visit to Haworth provided a Happy Hunting Ground. The SatNav guided us down an exciting and convoluted route across rolling moorlands, past reservoirs and through tiny hamlets that looked straight out of the 1940s. The atmosphere was set and Haworth greeted us by making us £5 lighter for the parking. With a smile though, so that's OK!

Camera was the K-5, the same for Sue, with the 18-135mm WR zoom and also the 10-17mm Fisheye Zoom for some random shooting. As usual, let's look at some examples:

We were down at Buile Hill Park in Salford today, just to see how the mansion and the Greenhouse were getting along. The mansion is under restoration at the moment, but the greenhouse was set to be demolished. This was such a wonderful place, with bi...

Always Carry a Camera

I make a point of always carrying a camera, just to capture anything and everything that catches my eye as we carry on with the minutiae of life. I was in Atherton and just heading for the shop that sells fuses and passed a small alleyway that used t...
