#81610 Town and Country Details - 'open to all' thread.

Posted by Bart on 24 December 2022 - 07:09 AM

Here’s an idea for an open thread:

 

Town and Country Details.

 

This could be pictures of unusual drain covers, unusual features of buildings, odd paving stones, almost anything ordinary that has some element of interest to the eye.

 

Everybody will have different ideas about what is ‘interesting’!

 

Any camera, any lens, any style, be it colour or monochrome.

Technical details with each picture always appreciated.

 

Some possible examples - I'll leave the tech details off for these.

 

Roof of former stables in Westgate on Sea High Street.

Looking down on beach escape ladder. The tide comes in quickly in West Bay:

The sign above an upholsterer's shop in Birchington:

Capstan wheel on Margate Harbour wall - possibly from around 1900:

If there's no input to the thread,  I'll know it was a daft idea & need to come up with something better!

 

Just curious, Pete: do you intend the images to be recent?

#80129 Along the canal Ghent-Bruges

Posted by Bart on 21 August 2022 - 07:18 AM

From the first half of the Lomography Kine Berlin 400 that came back with some peculiar artefacts on the negatives.

Crop tool to the rescue here as well - where needed.

(all with 90 Voigtländer APO Lanthar 3.5)

#80077 Sint-Jan in Eremo

Posted by Bart on 16 August 2022 - 01:16 PM

in the area filled with creeks on the border with the Netherlands.

 

Taken with Lomography Kine Berlin 400 that came back with some peculiar artefacts on the negatives.

I mainly used the crop tool to get rid of them.

While driving from Paunat to Mauzac, where we stayed for this vacation in the Périgord, we saw a view of the river below the country road that I thought was worth an extra stop.

#79676 barns, farms, cottages and a manor farm

Posted by Bart on 25 July 2022 - 06:59 AM

These are normally available in abundance in the countryside  :)

In the French countryside, they always seem to be a little older, original or more picturesque.

Perhaps it's just the vacation feel that "colours" my view  :rolleyes:
