You might wonder why I uprated the film. That's because I wanted to take some pictures at a wedding the next day. So, the wedding venue was a rural village hall, drinks in a marquee, with everyone hanging outside until it showered, then back to the marquee, then, finally to the hall, as the light faded. I shot the Morpeth town pictures, for fun of course, but also to check the exposure settings if the weather outdoors, the next day, might be bright, it was,

Unfortunately I can't bring you any of the wedding photographs, because, as the drinks were free I didn't take many worthwhile shots! Ah well, maybe next time, as long as I'm not the wedding photographer, she worked really hard over many hours.

Although it won't help with this photo, if you can see the registration number of a car in a photo you can get some details from the DVLA, if it's still "on the road" - see https://vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk/vehicle_enquiry/capture_vrn?locale=en

With older cars it might not give you the full model details, but it will give the maker and year of first registration.

Thanks Kevin. I've used that before (in fact, I used it only yesterday when someone on another forum asked about another car identification), but I couldn't find anything for the registration on this one (or the registration as I could make it out at least, which looks like GRU 587C).

I like the take on the staircases Peter.
Reminds me of the front of the courthouse building in Monaco.

Dont ask how I recall the place so vividly !! :police::runaway::LOL::LOL:

Édit: An internet sourced image to show the similarity

dis THE BRISE ever TURN UP ? I was booked to do a wedding in Rayleigh Essex once years ago -- got to Bride's House to take the bedroom shots etc then knock at door so I opened to help -- the VICAR stood there " Is the Bride about? " he asked , then Bride appeared with Bridesmaids -- " Bad News" said Vicar "He is not going to turn up -- not going through with it " OH DEAR !!! Bride burst into tears and all her Mascara ran down her face -- then Bridesmaids started crying -- i 'made My Excuses ' and left ----- all I got was £ 25 deposit and I had REFUSED a big wedding for Daughter of a local Millionaire Businessman I knew in Brentwood ---
I did a VIDEO all about Distastrous weddings -- you can see it here ---

Out of all the places I backpacked through in the uk , Dartmouth was never one of them.

I get the impression from your images that it’s somewhat bleak.
A bit of a piglet in foul weather I suspect both from a navigational aspect ( lack of noticeable landmarks barring the odd outcrop of rocks) and the difficulty to seek natural windbreaks.

Tbh you do well to see scenes to photograph as I reckon that I would really struggle.

Thanks Asha, you are right it can be very bleak out there and finding interesting shots can be a challenge. I generally scout with digital kit before lugging my Bronica out there (it weighs about 50lbs). I tend not to take the Bronica out in foul weather I have weather resistand Fuji (digital) kit for those days.

I like that, apart from the verticals!

I’m presuming that it wasn’t taken on LF?

No it was on the rb, its right at the top of the Royal Mile and there is not enough room to get very far back. The tripod was as low as it would go and the camera tilted right up. Need to try it again with the lf kit after the tourists go home.... And this was meant to be on the other thread. Doh :)

No expert here, but could be a Wolseley? Also the one behind? I used to have an MG 1300 from 1970 which was very similar. The grill looks the same to me but I think it had the MG badge at the top of it if I remember rightly. There were just subtle differences -mine was more pokey than it looked.
ah! I see someone else mentions a Riley. Perhaps I’m wrong.
edit: this has completely taken me down memory lane, so I had to google. I think it’s an Austin Princess - the P on the hub caps fit too, and the grill doesn’t look like a Wolseley.

Around the farm, from a roll of Acros 2 in ID11 that I ran through an Olympus OM2n/Ziuko 50mm f1.8 bought at auction last week. All working fine. The little camera is an absolute joy to use. The objective was to cannibalise it to supply a replacement shutter for my daughters otherwise mint OM2n, but I think it might be too good to break.
