This is a phone shot, as that's all I had with me when I wanted to capture a glorious burst of clear blue skies and sunshine that snuck in among a run of dank, dreary days. I was walking down towards Salts Mill, an edifice that you really can't miss, with that huge chimney soaring skywards. There's a fairly steep hill up to the main (Bradford) road and the view from up there is pretty good, looking north across the valley towards Baildon and Hope Hill. I normally try to exclude from my photos the apartment blocks and other boring things that surround our lovely World Heritage Site but I guess sometimes I should show the unvarnished truth. At least they are not high-rise blocks.
Yes its nice to include everything sometimes. It is still a nice pic showing the history of your town.
ReplyDeleteI like how the buildings stair step down the hill...showing how the road goes down to the river valley.
ReplyDeleteVery nice -- the curve of the road and the stair steps of houses on the left,
ReplyDeleteI like to see all of these terrace homes. Reminds me of Coronation Street!
ReplyDeleteYou've captured a good view. The buildings blend in with the sun, shadows, and landscape.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good view indeed.
ReplyDeletePreciosa toma
ReplyDeleteI like the view and so happy that the mills closed up.
ReplyDeleteSalts Mill chimney served one, or several, Scotch boilers providing motive factory power. Is this 150-year heart of all manufacturing production open for public inspection? Can it be photographed, Jenny?
