What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Five years ago it was the business premises of H.O. Bowley Ltd, Hosiery & fabrics in Loughborough during a stroll to the (sadly now closed) Tap & Mallet pub on Nottingham Road.
I really should do more of this kind of photography… even if wandering the streets at night can get you a reputation! 😁

It was an incredibly entertaining evening with the highlights being Colin’s English/German version of “The Lambeth Walk” and the impromptu audience participation on “Run Rabbit Run” (something Rachel and I still wonder about… don’t ask!)

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Five years ago it was the subway leading up into the Broadmarsh Shopping centre from the bus station in Nottingham… I remember thinking it had a Star Wars ‘trench run’ feel to it at the time…

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Five years ago it was the commune of Villegeneray in the Nièvre department in central France…
A delightfully rustic place, the ramshackle woodwork above supported the roof of a building home to a tractor and the Hollyhock was growing through the framework of a water well!

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day… Crich Memorial Tower
Crich Memorial Tower, April 2019
Fujifilm X-T10, thingyfy 11mm Pinhole Pro S, 0.4s, f79, ISO 200
Another image taken with my thingyfy Pinhole Pro S ‘lens’.
An image from last year’s Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day. This is Crich Stand, a memorial tower dedicated to the memory of the soldiers from the Sherwood Foresters Regiment who died in World War I and World War II*.
In the current situation I’m not sure I’ll get chance to shoot any pinhole images on WPPD (which is today) this year…
*The memorial is also dedicated to those who died serving in the Sherwood Foresters Regiment from 1945 to 1970, the Worcestershire and Sherwood Foresters Regiment from 1970 to 2007 and the Mercian Regiment since 2007.
Throwback Thursday… By the banks of the Loire…

What was I photographing on this day in previous years?
Four years ago it was this fantastic sculpture on the bank of the Loire River at Cosne-Cours-sur-Loire in central France.
Entitled ‘Le Marinier Tirant sa Barque’ (The Bargee Pulling his Boat) the sculpture was created by Jean-Jacques Bourgeois based on an idea by Marcel Van Nieuwenberg.
The bridge in the background crosses both the Loire and the border between the Nièvre and Cher départements.
