It would be a good idea to e-mail the admin office with results so they can see what 'enthusiast Photographers' actually TAKE in shopping malls-- I bet they think anyone with a camera is stealing 'copyright designs' of shops or taking photos of children.

Good idea Peter. I've just e-ailed them this set of images, can't imagine what they'll make of them.

Thanks everyone for the supportive comments.

Now that's an attractive Christmas greeting. I admired these when they first appeared and now seeing them as a set I can appreciate what a fine collection they make. I bet you are glad it poured down with rain every day to give you real lake District atmosphere.
Best wishes to you and your family.

Photography in a huge shopping centre can sometimes lead to difficult encounters with security staff. Not so at Tyneside's Metro Centre. All you have to do is check in at the administrative offices, fill in a form and they give you a pass. Tripods are not a good idea so my K3 and DA*50-135mm lens were hand held throughout. ISO was 1000-1250 for all of these.

As above, a lovely set well worth revisiting to take in more of the delights. I particularly like the images where a lone autumn leaf appears as a delightful focal point amid the blurry water.

How in the name of h**l did we manage with medium format ( 15 shots per roll ) ????? and light meters?????

CHEERS Vic.

And not just medium format Vic, 36 shots per roll on an SLR, how did we ever manage to cope with changing film every few minutes? But I don't think we did...we just didn't take so many shots. Apart from the practicalities the expense had to be considered.

I like all of these Gary, particularly the bridge over the river since the colour cast was corrected. The water falls in the river are also very attractive.

Its like riding a bike. When you're young you are pedalling slowly uphill. Then you get over the top after which its fast downhill and getting faster all the way.

I remember this too, a striking image and very well deserved to appear on the front cover off AP. Congrats Gareth.

Thanks for the comments, much appreciated. It was an awesome experience, both at the scene of devastation and watching the poor residents of Appleby leaving their homes, and the 50 mile drive over the Pennines from Durham in gale force winds and lashing rain.
Here's one more for the collection, I think it adds a wry twist to the desperate situation.
Gareth, the River Wear did overflow its banks at Durham but it was nowhere as serious in the North East as it was on the opposite side of the Pennines.
