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.

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

Suffering from tinnitus means I don’t photograph nearly as much live music as I used to but when I found out Freeway were playing outdoors at one of my favourite local micropubs, The Bunny Hop Ale House I thought I’d go along and take a few pics (and have a pint or two!)

Square Saturday… Lytham St. Anne’s

Not Lytham St. Anne’s the place but Lytham St. Anne’s the steam locomotive… or parts of it anyway!

This locomotive was built by Peckett & Sons in 1949 as works no.2111 and was used at Blackpool Gasworks. After intial preservation at Lytham St Anne’s it moved to the Midland Railway-Butterley in 1990 where it ran for six years before being withdrawn for overhaul.
