Lining up his next possible shot is my old friend, rail enthusiast and photographer Mr David Hayes in the days when we both had a lot more hair than we do today, 12th July 1980.
We are located at a foot crossing at Blackwell at the top of the Licky Incline and although it is mid summer Dave is wearing a long sleeved top.
By his feet you can see the top of Dave’s black Hakuba aluminium camera case, I have one as well but in silver. A few years ago I re-instated my Hakuba from store in the loft after a period with more modern camera bags and it is back in use. Some may consider it a bit of a relic and bulky but I find it good and versatile as a camera case but also a good portable step, to get a bit of extra height to see over modern bridge parapets and as a handy seat as I am not getting any younger.
