Castlefield, Manchester

Posted by
Ian Bramham (Manchester, United Kingdom) on 28 April 2014 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

A snapshot of the Victorian railway bridges and canals in city center Manchester. I photographed this recently using my first ever digital compact camera that I bought at the end of 2006 - its a little Fuji F31 that I still use from time to time. It's only a 6mp camera so producing a square crop means images of a maximum of just 4mp, a far cry from the large and heavy 36mp Nikon D800 that I normally use.

FUJIFILM FinePix F31fd 1/85 second F/2.8 ISO 400 8 mm

once again no matter what equipment is being used you cannot beat the natural talent for composition! this scene has a fine balance to it with element of the bridges working harmoniously with the others!
