Another from the NE
Hello, looking at the new members it seems I'm not alone up here - based in Sunderland. Shoot pretty much exclusively at night with a beat up old Graflex. So, hello!

Waiting for the developing bill - 2 hours (and it's so small now!)

Hi Tim...varies really! A lot of grot, industrial decay, historic areas and of course the ubiquitous river and coastline we have in abundance here. You can see a small selection here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/interzone- ... 448513294/timparkin wrote:Hi!

Hi Andy
It's not grot, it's strangely beautiful. Plastic bags on razor wire, who needs all that cliche postcard romantic landscape stuff when you've got so much dark scape texture out there. I used to run around those bits of Sunderland and Seaham after dark when I lived there, brought back some good memories and a few ghosts too. The best compliment I can give is that it has encouraged me to go and find some after dark industrial agriculture stuff out here in the so called wilderness, although I guess I'll have to take some artificial light, I assume you were just using available street lights.
Regards
Adrian
