Henrietta St, Whitby. by TallGuy
Spent the afternoon in Whitby trying to find things to photograph.. it shouldn’t be hard, there is so much there, yet I’ve been so many times. I always like this view of the cobbled street disappearing down the hill, I decided to try it with the telephoto. It took a while to get a shot clear of people, fortunatley Whitby was fairly quiet. Taken in Whitby in the North York Moors National Park With a Canon 5D.

The Black Bull. by Irene Burdell
Yorkshire UK The Bronte’s . / One of the best known pubs in Haworth, The Black Bull is apparently the hostelry where Branwell Bronte spent most of his time.

Above the panelling, the rough cream walls are adorned with old photographs and paintings of the pub. . / One of the pub’s feature possessions is Branwell Bronte’s chair, on which he spent many an hour brooding over his beer, usually also under the influence of opium which he purchased from the apothecary opposite the pub. Information from Yorkshire Escapes, Textures added / C anon EOS 400d , / HDR 3 shot bracketing processed with photomatix , Tripod used. /

Skipton in Yorkshire UK ( 579 ) by Irene Burdell
Canon EOS 400d / / / Leeds Liverpool Canal / Britain’s longest inland waterway (127 miles) was opened in 1816. The Leeds Liverpool Canal took 46 years to build, and finally came in at five times the original budget. The first part to open was the lock-free section from Skipton to Bingley, in 1773. The canal was busy all through the nineteenth century and carried stone, coal and other goods. The canal passes right through the centre of Skipton, and at the canal basin there is a junction with the Springs Branch (Lord Thanet’s) Canal. Only half a mile long but a beautiful stretch of canal that winds around the back of Skipton Castle, acting as a moat, and until 1946 was used to transport limestone from a quarry higher up the hill. The old chute where the stone was loaded into the barges can still be seen. / / Viewed 579 Times / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

Felled tree by Rigg Mill. by TallGuy

Rigg Mill is near Whitby in the North York Moors National Park. / Taken with a Canon 5D.

Young Love, Thomason Foss. by TallGuy
Popped over to Thomason Foss this afternoon hoping to find a different angle. I’d taken a few shots when this young couple came and sat down besides the waterfall to have their lunch. I couldn’t resist the shot, the red jacket added colour to the photo.. I talked to the pleasant couple for a little while and watched the salmon trying to fight their way upstream.. / I hope the title doesn’t cause them embarassment.. I just thought it suited the shot :-) I tried several compositions with them in shot… they didn’t know, which meant it was keep your fingers crossed time that they didn’t move too much on the long exposure shot. I did tell them that I had taken their photo.. Thomason Foss is near Goathland in the North York Moors National Park. The waterfall featured in a film called “Possession”, where someone was seen diving into the pool and swam into a cave under the waterfall ( there is no cave under the waterfall to my knowledge ). Taken with a Canon 5D.

Nelly Ayre Foss in Spate. by TallGuy
A dull rainy day, my dear wife was off to the shops, so I decided on checking out Nelly Ayre Foss. The last time I was here, there was barely any water, this time it was gushing. No chance of getting to my favourite spot, it was under water. It was such a dull day that I decided on hdr from a single raw file to get a bit of light into the shot. / I was stood in that with my wellies on.. I even noticed the water was still rising as it got closer to the top of my wellies. / Nelly Ayre Foss is close to Goathland in th North York Moors National Park. / Taken with a Canon 5D.

Another Dark Arch by Denis Dalby
The so called ‘Dark Arches’ under the Leeds City railway station have always been a source of fascination for me, even before I started taking photos. I was passing this one as I was walking down to the river to take shots of the new building development there and had to see what happened. The indoor floodlighting came out quite strangely. / Shot with AWB F8 at 0.8 secs 400 ISO hand held, braced against the wall. Sony Alpha 200 28×105 lens.
