Description

1-2 Walked back to Moss Lane and took these two photographs looking down it towards Littlemoss. The junction with Rayner Lane is just behind me.

4-13 Another series of shots taken from the side of Albert Hulme's. They are repeats of earlier efforts, see film c7/1/7.

15 - 17 Shots of the "capstan" shed showing its simple line. I'm reasonably happy with these.

Note

Rolleiflex Automat.

Agfapan 100 (80 ASA) Rodinal 1:75. 10 mins at 68°F.

I moved back to take in the other buildings at the side of Hulme's estate - a curious muddle of shots which, nevertheless, sit easily in the landscape sandwiched between the dried grass and billowing clouds.</p> <p>Straight print.</p></span>
