The weather was pretty atrocious over the weekend. We went out for breakfast on Sunday and afterwards made our way to the Castle. There's always an exhibition on and the annual pass is a great excuse/incentive to get out of the house when the weather is far from clement.
My friend Graham has a couple of his photographs currently on display so it was great to see them up close. Not that you could see much up close from high up on the Castle Rock. Normally the view could be termed commanding. Not so on Sunday. Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station, admittedly eight miles away as the crow flies, normally dominates the skyline to the south west. Alas, not yesterday; though I did find the somewhat misty view I was afforded kind of atmospheric. Likewise the views over towards the Trent and Meadow Lane, home to Notts County FC, were equally shrouded. Note to self - I think I'll save that particular image for March's Photo Challenge.
Very atmospheric. I'm assuming this is a colour photo, not one changed to black and white, in spite of it trying to fool us that it is?
ReplyDeleteThere was very little in the way of colour on Sunday!
DeleteI chose this week to spend a couple of days wandering around North Norfolk and the weather is much the same. Every item of clothing I have with me feels damp. I hope I managed to capture a half decent photo or two on my travels, though I can't imagine that any will match your atmospheric shot of the power station.
