On my morning photowalk, I explored some of the downtown, but also their wonderful wonderful waterfront. It's quite extensive, and I wasn't able to explore the entirety of it. Oddly, even though there are many world-class attractions there, I was QUITE taken by the little village of sea cans that were converted to shops.

Since 1779, The Piece Hall has stood proudly at the heart of Halifax. Originally built to support the trading of ‘pieces’ of cloth, it has been a meeting point of Halifax’s commercial, civic and cultural life for almost 250 years. In an ambitious and exciting new chapter, has been reimagined as a new cultural and commercial centre.
The Piece Hall has recently undergone a £19 million conservation and transformation programme. The work was carried out by Graham Construction with funding from Calderdale Council and a significant investment of £7 million from the Heritage Lottery Fund, with additional support from Garfield Weston Foundation and The Wolfson Foundation. The Piece Hall is now operated by an independent body, the newly formed charity The Piece Hall Trust.
Just when you start feeling like you're wasting your time because you can't seem to find anything worth while to photograph........... don't get discouraged. Stick with it and good things will eventually happen. I wasn't feeling it and was about to pack it in when this gentleman came out from nowhere and stopped on the church steps. The light was amazing and I got my shot. Now, will it win any awards..... probably not, but who cares. It made me happy just seeing the light and I'm glad I waited.

Two members of the 7 man crew for Halifax Bomber 'Friday the 13th' have arrived, the other 5 seem to be dragging their feet much to the annoyance of the base commander who is impatiently checking his watch...!

I chickened out and used my old Canon T3i, held a variable ND filter in front of the lens :-)
