What was I photographing on this day in previous years?

Four years ago it was a small classic car show in a local park and this appropriately dressed couple caught my eye…

Does the image title refer to ‘the look’ they’re exchanging or their outfits… You decide.

A photograph from a shopping trip to Leeds in June… On the rare occassions I go shopping I also try to fit in one of two things… some photography or a decent pint of beer.

On this particular day I managed both!

Bridge 225H carries the railway lines west of Leeds station over the Leeds & Liverpool Canal.
