July 2016

There’s been a bit of a gap here but we we’ll try to fill in the gaps when we have time.  And having some time today, I thought I’d add a post about our recent meeting.

The meeting didn’t go quite as planned, as you’ll see, but let’s start as usual with member’s photos. The theme for the July meeting was Photos of Durham. We’d met a few days earlier for a photo walk around Durham, so most of the photos are from that walk. Some who didn’t make the walk shared photos from other visits there.

The Cathedral illuminated and in fog – and a ghost photographer.

Those who were on the walk shared their images.

Detaisl from Palace Green…

and views from the riverside.

A different perspective in the same areas…

…and some architectural details.

 

The plan after that was that we would take a walk round the school to take architectural shots. Unfortunately, since I considered the idea and checked that it was OK, they have installed new security fencing  so this wasn’t possible. However, they did give us permission to take some internal shots so we did get a practical session even if it wasn’t quite as intended.

Here are the our best shots.First a staircase that we could get to outside and reflections in from a science lab.

A couple of shots of the locker room…

…more lockers, and the path outside the main entrance.

Then a detail shot from the lockers and a couple of architectural details.

 

Next month, you can look forward to some Summer Landscapes.
