Around Totnes

[Bamber]

A few pictures taken around where I live.​

At one time most Town Centres in the UK had a Sweet Shop. The classy ones called themselves Confectioners.


​

A closer look at those suckers.

The top of Totnes High Street narrows until it becomes known as...​

The Narrows

with Totnes Castle looming behind.​

Great shots Phil...love the last one of 'The Narrows' isn't it a shame that they have to put down yellow lines in such a beautiful arc of buildings... still has the peaceful look about it though...

There's lots of places in Totnes Fore Street/High Street worth photographing, but to get them with no people or vehicles you really need to be about early on a Sunday morning, as I was this week. The weather was beautiful and clear when I took these; within an hour it was what my grandad called "baby weather": wet & windy.

 

[Romford Lad]

Understand what you're saying about being early...as an aside...I'm getting my film cameras out...the 35mm Canon outfit isn't a problem ~ films cheap and easy to get done ~ and with a great scanner here, can do what I want with them ~ but my big stuff ~ like the Bronica [which weighs a ton] is now very expensive to use ~ it costs around £35 to get one roll of film developed and printed ~ but will use it for special stuff [having taken a digital first to make sure all's in place.
