A bridge not too far










Today, we spent some time working in Ironbridge in sunny Shropshire (very hot and sunny as it turned out) followed by the afternoon at leisure at the Blists Hill Victorian Town (a living museum for those of you not familiar with it).

We do love Ironbridge. It has so much to offer both the casual visitor and the working photographer. From a work perspective, I needed to get some shots of the bridge with a blue sky and without tourists. On previous visits I've either had no tourists but a drab sky or a beautiful blue sky but loads of people! Today, perseverance paid off and we got the shots we have been after.

Blists Hill is a fascinating place and a wonderful way to spend a sunny afternoon and I can recommend it to anyone looking for something to do with the family.
