Comment [H1]: always a car at the top of the road, work going on in three of the houses at least. Comment [H2]: that gardens over grown now could take a panning of it for a background layer? Comment [H3]: really old style of bus stop very few of them left, not an estate you want to hang around in if you aren't known.

Brick wall looks really good in golden hour. Like the lines of the telephone wires.
Comment [H2]: Always a car at the top
of the road, work going on in three of the houses at least.
Comment [H3]: That gardens over
grown now could take a panning of it for a background layer? Get the front of the house?
Comment [H4]: Steep walk to rural
area, goes into housing estates, like curve on corner house, always busy with cars.
Comment [H5]: Really old style of bus
stop very few of them left, not an estate you want to hang around in for to long if you arent known. Like the curves in the road up and the roads coming off to the sides
Comment [H6]: Finally at the top
where its quiet but you can still see the houses businesses and giant chimney real contrast to the fields especially in this light, Im going to have winter light weathers been bad.
Comment [H7]: Dont know if Ill use
this bit but I like the traffic signs on the road.(removed this image for smaller file) decided not to use. Comment [H8]: This trailer has been here years and would look great on one of the layers. (PS) Trailer mysteriously been moved no longer apart of the landscape or available for the contrast.
Comment [H9]: Calming view in
comparison to abandoned trailer
Comment [H10]: Curved rough of road
country parking space, like the texture and shape of the ground like its surrounding view
Comment [H11]: Always dog walkers
and joggers here, still out of the way but still houses and farms around. Never out of sight of one. Fewer traffic here than the main part of Glossop
Comment [H12]: This image and the
ones around it are such a contrast to scenes leading up to this more rural area. I like the farm house and half built one in the back garden.
Comment [H13]: The closest to being
house free your going to get and its just so peaceful and quiet it looks idyllic
Comment [H14]: Best bench in the
area, nearly every family has a family photograph around this bench. More beautiful scenes but there is no getting away from telephone poles and wires.
Comment [H15]: This area I like
because of the trees and the potential lighting you could get (the trees no longer here and area changed) Chose not to use this area for my shots (Scene has been removed for a smaller file) Comment [H16]: Chose not to use this scene, Ive got plenty of really good scenes of this road (in the above images) that I can work with. ( Scene has been removed) Comment [H17]: Just plain fields which sometimes have sheep on. I love this scene you wouldnt think that there is a giant stately home right across the road from it could make a really good background for one of my layers.
Comment [H18]: The cross roads and
one of my most favourite places in the world, I often drive up here and park up with my camera, Capturing the lines in the road and the markings would show the different directions that came be taken at this spot and this spot alone, very difficult to change your mind if you make the wrong choice here. So much differences here in just one spot, texture and contrast in the view and gorgeous.
Comment [H19]: Would work so well
with the image above, what this road leads to if you choose this turning.
Comment [H20]: The varnished gate
which always remind me of the secret garden, another image that would work really well I think with the above two.
Comment [H21]: This has got to be the
most photographed telephone box in the Derbyshire area, its placement strikes everyone as odd now, but Im sure it was extremely useful before mobile phones. In this view you also get the view of more farms and you start seeing Glossop in the background again as well as the country road.
Comment [H22]: Behind the trees a
corrugated abandoned collapsing barn, with slightly bent wall next to it, but a field full of happy sheep right next to it.
Comment [H23]: Might make a good
background layer for the above two images (decided not to use it as it made the layered final image look to hectic and messy).
Comment [H24]: Again there is a
beautiful scenic area and then this random structure with net curtains in it, what you cant see in this particular image is the pot holes on the floor surrounding it and I think if I can get both into the shot then I can add some real contrast to its final image .
Comment [H25]: More telephone
poles and more telephone wires changing the rural scene and reminding you that you are never that far away from civilisation not a reminder that you always want.
Comment [H26]: The view of Glossop
from this country road, there really is no escaping a house a town or a business around here.
Comment [H27]: This is a view that I
really like, I like it for its lines and shapes, but I wonder if I can bring out the same lines shapes etc . at my height or whether the height of the camera on the google car was what managed this particular view.
Comment [H28]: In this position right
here you can look either way down the road and not see a house on it, yes you can see houses and sheds to the side but not one on the road and only stood here. (removed picture for smaller file) I chose not to use them one in final images. Comment [H29]: More sheep in gorgeous country side with Glossop now as its direct background, structure in the field, broken wall to right hand side, and brick wall with no cement.
Comment [H30]: Coming out of the
Derbyshire level now and still looking idyllic with a tucked away hotel.( Removed Scene for smaller file) chose not to use. Comment [H31]: An absolute mess on the left (there is now a skip and bigger pot holes) but you should see who their neighbours are, I cant believe I never noticed before.
Comment [H32]: This is the neighbour
to the above image! The contrast in the two (especially viewed with your own two eyes) is insane! This is Glossops fancy golf club (that very few people that actually live in Glossop use many travel out to use others) the course and the bridges and the trees are stunning especially in comparison to whats across the road.
Comment [H33]: And the crazy
contrast of this road continues, with even more dodgy looking work shops and half collapsed walls. But if you look at the image below you will see whats right next door.
Comment [H34]: This is a close just 1
minute from the above picture, this is the kind of area that everyone knows each other and there is even a picture on google maps of one guy having a brew at the door chatting the houses and cars and trees are all very nice and well designed not what you expect to be next door to the image above. My town is proving to be full of contrasts, and its never really been how Ive viewed it before.
Comment [H35]: Right at the bottom
of the infamous snake pass is this old abandoned garage, but its never been touched renovated put on the market nothing its just been left there to pretty much rot.
Comment [H36]: This isnt the angle I
want to get the shot but I struggled to view the bus stop the way I wanted , I actually drove past this bus shelter the other day and it appears to be used as some kind of dumping ground/ storage it has all sorts of material in it and its full and broken now, so when its raining theres no room for actual people they are standing by the bench getting soaked? Why isnt is being fixed so the community can get proper use out of it, this is so bizzare not everyone drives and surrounding this bus stop are so many high end houses so why leave such a mess here, why not fix it?
Comment [H37]: I cannot entirely
explain why I am drawn to the road but I am, I know that I like the bricked post box and bricked houses and then the council estate thats right behind it (not that old) seem to be at odds with each other. But it shows the progression and changes that have been made in Glossop over the last few years however (see below)
Comment [H38]: There is only one
business that has been left and just sticks out like a sore thumb, this building was used thoroughly in and around 1975 (so Ive been told) and although progression seems to have struck Glossop in recent years, its this building and the one at the bottom of the snake and the bus stop that seem to have just been left as lost causes like people got board and stopped part way through. But what now and what next, are these problems ever going to get fixed?
