Forgotten photos: Creake Abbey

As I'm still finishing my current roll of film, I have no new photos to share. After my 365 project this is a very bizarre place for me to be, usually I have too much to share ha. Luckily, I still have lots of other photos that I haven't shared here on my hard drive though, so don't worry! Though I am kind of amazed I haven't shared these photos yet... 

I've actually edited these again since my first scan. These were in the first batches of colour film with my new scanner and I remember being so frustrated that the photos I envisioned just weren't there after scanning. It's hard to explain what exactly was wrong with them - I guess the phrase 'je ne sais quoi' - but I'm pretty pleased to say that in this second edit, I think I found what I was looking for! Hurrah.

Creake Abbey Part III

Some little details that I spotted walking between the Cafe and the Abbey, including a friendly horse and even more coins.

I've only used my Zenit E twice so far but looking at these again is making me itch to take it out for some more photographic adventures together, I really love the photos I can take with it.

Creake Abbey Part II

One thing we didn't spot whilst having our photos taken at Creake Abbey was the little shrine at the back of the ruin. I wouldn't have spotted it at all if my parents hadn't pointed it out on our second visit - but once you did start to see all the coins that we left in various places on the walls and ledges, you started to see them everywhere.

Creake Abbey Part I

First, I have a new template on my blog - hurrah! I get bored fairly quickly of layouts I've found and it took me all of last week to realise that was why I didn't really feel like blogging at the moment - but now things are a bit cleaner and simpler I'm glad to be back. What do you think?

I'm excited to be sharing photos from Creake Abbey here today - we had some of our wedding photos taken here in September (you can see one here, I love it) and we went back again to visit with friends and family the week after the wedding as well and of course I took my cameras with me. 

The abbey isn't that big - especially compared to Kirkstall Abbey near us and definitely compared to Fountains Abbey which is huge but its charming and delightful and I'm glad I got a chance to capture that myself on film. I'm always going to be extra fond of it after having our photos taken there I think.

I'm really pleased with the results from my second roll of film taken with my new to me Zenit E as well - I think I'll be taking it out with some black and white film again very soon.
