Steven, three very well photographed still life set ups. The last two are for me very good indeed as the shadow symmetry is so good,I love them and would frame them for my study.I have pictures! Shot these in November to test the soup was still good.

Is that the bridge in Paris? I like the photographs.
Thanks, and no, not Paris - I think they've removed all the locks from that one now as the weight was causing structural problems(!). This is at Bakewell in Derbyshire. I think the trend is spreading though - there are even a dozen or so on a railway bridge close to where I live. I suspect a cynical marketing ploy by the British Association of Padlock Makers.

Huh! Wonder if they have considered what a bunch of fat people would do crossing the bridge Which reminds of one my stories:- Albert bridge in London have a sign saying marching soldiers have to break step as in step, the vibration could effect the bridge's structure..h'mm well best to be safe although sounds over the top with traffic using it now.

We prefer, well upholstered people or people of a different girth.
gravitationally challenged ?
Thanks Peter, it's a terrific location that's due for a multi-million pound revamp this year, so good to get in before they spruce it up. I'm just returning to film after decades shooting digital, so this was a trial run of the Vista and the Nikon FE, and I'm reasonably happy with the results. Very minimal editing - a soft 's' curve to add a touch of contrast but not much else.Interesting shots of these derelict baths Steven, and I think the Vista has tackled the reds pretty successfully.
Thanks very much, appreciate itThose are very nice. I especially like the chequered floor shot.

Those reds are great!!
Thank you David, I appreciate the kind words. The main pool will probably stay untouched during the revamp, as the cost of bringing it up to standard would be massive. There are two other smaller pools. It's a fabulous place, run by a community trust for the benefit of local people. The main pool is sometimes used for dance or fashion shows. It's well worth a visit, though gaining access is a somewhat laborious process.@stevenelawson What a waste of what appears to have been a great facility!!! Nice to hear that it is going to be revamped.
Great pictures all round but the one that stands out for me is #4. The reason being you have captured that sort of story on the tiles at the back of the cubicle - and not a swear word in sight!!!
And as @Peter B has said, the film has brought out the reds absolutely spot on. Having said that the film has also made the black lines stand out in the shot of the deep end of the pool.
I'm no expert but that to me is a great piece of photography and you have preserved something of days past which may not be seen again after the revamp.

Blimey, Andy, how out of date was that roll?!
