These photos were taken during a visit to 

the Black Country Museum in Dudley last August.

The first shot was taken in the pub there where I spotted this couple.

The second shot was in one of the back to back houses. 

She was showing us carbolic soap.

Above in the gentleman's outfitters the man
was pushing his hats. 

This gentleman waving his stick told us how
we lived in the Art Deco period
[see the wallpaper and the moquette settee]

A Cottage and Fruit Flasks

We went into the city and en route went past this cottage that is being renovated but the state it is in has been so for a long time. This is two images stitched together using Cs3 Photomerge. This is a great improvement on previous panorama programmes from Adobe.
Then in what was in the window of a cafe that replaced the famous Beeches bookshop I attempted to photograph the big flasks. There are so many reflections that it is virtually impossible.

Salisbury Saturday

On Saturday last we walked into the City via the Close as usual and did some shopping. This was mainly for food and drink for the RPS meeting that we have organized for Sunday.
Anyway we took some photos on my new camera a Canon 30D. Only the 10 to 20 mm zoom lens was used.
