A collapsing cottage on the road between Ingleton and Hawes.

I would have liked to get closer to this so that I could have worked with some more extreme angles. Unfortunately a large, barbed-wire fence was in the way and I couldn't find a way over it.

For this, they built a viaduct

The stream that runs under the Ribblehead Viaduct, a 24-arch span that crosses the Ribble Valley in North Yorkshire.

This might actually be the Ribble itself, or it may be but a tributary, I don't know. It's a wonderfully calm and idyllic spot, but only in the evenings or early mornings. During the day it's full of heavily togged-out tourists and walkers and somehow all the romance just drains out of the place.

I intend to go back and shoot the viaduct itself at some point. Probably at sunrise, when the conditions will be better.

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
