An Evening in Cambridge

It's been a while since I have taken any night shots.  So I decided to take the Olympus into Cambridge and see what I could get.

 

 

 

 

 

Mill Road Winter Fair

Last Saturday, Mill Road held its annual Winter Fair.  It's always a busy and vibrant event, reflecting the cosmopolitan and independent nature of this area of Cambridge.

 

 

A Foggy Morning In St Neots

Last Saturday I woke to a beautiful foggy morning.  Perfect photography conditions.  But where to go to take best advantage?  I decided Granchester might be a good bet.  The meadows would have interesting trees and there might be some activity on the river.  Then I could work my way down into the centre of Cambridge.  

My only concerns were that the fog might not be as strong in Granchester or that it might not last until I got there.  So to play safe, I decided to get a few shots by the river in St Neots first, before moving on to somewhere more interesting.  However, it turned out that my safety stop gave me all I wanted.  Some great trees, swans and rowers on the river.  I spent the whole morning getting shots there and didn't bother with Granchester.  So the lesson is, never ignore your local patch.
