Another night out with the Bishops Stortford Camera Club. Our regular firestarter and general “ask me to do something & I’ll do it” helper Steve came up trumps with his collection of replica guns and military garb. He posed in all sorts of awkward positions for us, but it was
There are a few little passages or ginnels around Dunmow – here’s one of them that comes out just behind the 16th century (old) town hall…the building with the bell tower. It would appear the gardens are all trying to escape into the ginnel.
