Southport pier

Building on the pier at Southport, Lancashire, England. I was just struck by all the the angular lines of this scene. Even the sun helps to make yet more angular shadow lines. If I was going to do anything to this picture, it would be to increase colour saturation and remove the people at the right of the shot.

Railway Sheds at Bridgnorth, Shropshire

One of the things I love about digital cameras is that they are much more responsive to low light. On film, I would have had to have used a tripod and very slow shutter speed to get this shot, or else I would have had to have used flash which would have given an artificial effect. I managed to get this picture of a Great Western Tank engine in the workshops at Bridgnorth on the Severn Valley Railway using a hand-held camera.
