W.O.W!

Didn't think I'd be that interested in wearable art until I found out about this place.

It was definitely a WOW and quite a surprise find in Nelson. Worth the drive in pretty rubbish weather to have a look.

Some very cool stuff, but also some rather creepy pieces too....

Classic Cars

On Sunday, our local park hosted another event.

This time, it was one with one or two cars. Cars of a British or European vintage, but also a couple of veeerry nice modern examples....

Something like 400 cars in all. Pretty impressive to see.

Mark G, Lee and I popped along to have a look and try our hand car photography.

The car owners obviously take a lot of pride in their cars, so they were highly polished.... like mirrors in some cases. Not so good for photography! The reflections created a lot of challenges.

The other challenge was trying to figure out the right lines or angles to use. Not sure I've got it right yet.

Still, good fun and a great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday.

The Howick Historical Village also opened their doors for a donation rather than the normal price, so we popped in for a quick look there.

For finishing the photos, I played around with trying for a 60's vintage look on a couple. The black & white and sepia photos were adjusted using Silver Efex Pro.

Enjoy.
