Just on the edge of the busy little town centre of Hebden Bridge is a far more tranquil scene. It was a very cold day and the towpath was icy but I thought the muted, misty colours were very pleasing. This is the Rochdale Canal, at one time an important waterway for transporting raw goods and textiles to and from the cotton mills in the Calder valley.
Hi Jenny -yes I can see it's cold .. but as you say the steely grey of cool beauty ... lovely photo - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteCool beauty indeed and that little suggestion of red on the boats just sets it off.
ReplyDeleteThe arch of that bridge just makes the whole shot for me.
ReplyDeleteA great composition, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteAm browsing your blog and love the look of your pics!
ReplyDeleteYour are right. It does look cold. And maybe foreboding . . .
