Snowy Photos in the Peak District

We nipped down to Bakewell today to take some snowy photos. Took photos of Bakewell along the river and the old bridge.
Then stopped off in Ashford in the Water for shots of the church, river and Sheepwash Bridge (an old packhorse bridge).
The was a good 3 inches everywhere, snow on tops of walls, covering trees. A good day for black and white photos. Sorry this one is in colour, it's a mobile phone shot!

In Bed at Haddon Hall

We set up our stand in the State Bedroom at Haddon Hall today. What a place, a medieval manor that is largely unmodernised. There is also no heating so we will probably need thermal underwear for the show at the weekend!

It opens at 10am Saturday. Here is a photo of the stand from today. You may notice that the bed has been removed from the State Bedroom. Loads of room for the stand but not much chance of a nap!

Haddon Hall Spring Showcase

We are getting ready for our first art and designer craft show of this year.

It's the Spring Showcase of Peak District Artisans at Haddon Hall between Bakewell and Matlock.

We set up our stand on Wednesday and the show is on Saturday and Sunday.

We will have quite a few new originals and silver prints. There will also be 37 other artists exhibiting, some of the most talented in the Peak District so lots to see and all high quality.

I've been struggling with my bad back today, it's been letting me know I'm overdoing it. Too much time spent in front of my computer scanning and editing new images.

Hope to see you at the weekend.
