Fun Fair
Arena Fun Fair

Taken at 1:24pm in Morecambe Bay, Lancashire. Saturday 16th August 2008.
Morecambe Bay was a welcome day out after another busy week working on my Blackpool project. My girlfriend Kate and I decided to take a drive in the afternoon, with no idea of where we wanted to go (isn’t that sometimes the best way?!). I had never been to Morecambe before, I had however, heard of its proud history of being a thriving seaside resort back in the mid-twentieth century. The town has declined over the years and this ‘Arena Fun Fair’ is certainly a monument to that. The view towards the Lake District across the bay were sublime, even though the weather wasn’t quite at its best. This is one of the first photographs taken on my new Canon 40D SLR and I’m really pleased with the overall quality and feel of the camera. I must say that after three years of using my beloved Canon 20D SLR, this might take a bit of getting used too. All in all though, I’m really happy with it and can’t wait to get out there and take more photo’s!
