Streets & Pathways

May’s project was great.  Even though I had a baby to deal with I managed to get out and about to get photographs of Streets and Pathways.  
My first one is of a wall at Linacre.  I like how the path is parallel to the brick wall running along the bottom of one of the reservoirs.  I just wished I had someone on the path so that the eye could lead to something and not just off to distance.


My next one was a muddy pth at Holme Brooke Valley Park.  Granted I cheated with this one as I had taken it a few months back.  However turning it black and white made it more atmospheric and so I added it to my collection.


This is my last one for the project and I think it’s may favorite of the bunch.  I have gone more urban with this one, though the tunnel is near to my home which is set in the country-re side of Chesterfield.  At first I did not like it, but I whacked it into black & white and looked at it and looked at it and well got inspired.  The mono tone brings out the texture and grittiness of the tunnel.  The arrow directs the eye to the end of the tunnel to the bright light of hope.  I have looked at this photograph and am wanting to do a “Secret Chesterfield” project for myself and find hidden subjects of interest.  Like the Rose Girl 
from Queens Park.


Now I must go to change a nappy, sorry this is a short blog.
