What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
11 years ago it was this seaside scene in Sidmouth… my bird identification skills aren’t great but I believe this is a European herring gull (Larus argentatus).

W.E. Savage & Son
Fujifilm X-E1, Fujinon XF 14mm f/2.8 R, 1/170s, f8, ISO 400
What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
11 years ago it was this somewhat neglected corner of Derby…
Pics of W.E. Savage have appeared on the blog before, here and here but I don’t think I’ve published a pic of the ‘Glam Boutique’ pinup before.

Nikon D600, NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8 Ai-S, 10s, f8, ISO 100
What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
12 years ago it was this seascape at Sidmouth in Devon, using (I think) an ND 3.0 (10-stop) filter to lengthen the exposure time.
Editing this pic in Lightroom reminded me (again) of how dirty the sensor on the D600 used to get… definitely the worst camera I’ve ever owned for that!

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Two years ago it was this beautiful glass candlestick from San Gimignano in Italy.
I acquired the Sony NEX-F3 as part of a job lot of non-working cameras but all it needed was a new battery to get it working!

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
10 years ago it was the ‘Love Locks’ adorning Weir Bridge in Bakewell, Derbyshire…
An estimated 40,000 locks were removed from the bridge in September 2004 and the bridge redesigned to prevent more locks being attached. The locks were relocated to nearby Thornbridge Hall where they now form ‘The Love Locker’.
I wonder if Lewis and Kathryn are still together?
