NEMPF Exhibition

It's about time I started to post stuff about my wanderings and of course my unmissable musings about life the universe and everything. Some of us went to the NEMPF exhibition today (12/01/08). There were some great wildlife and natural history shots showing good animal behaviour captured at exactly the right second. There were some good 'landscapes' or 'earthscapes' as our friends at Dronfield have started referring to the wider subject of land, city, sea and bit scapes. Lots of the stuff is 'current fashion' and I'm getting a bit fed up of static portraits of folk with lots of body piercing. Worth seeing tho. Should've taken a couple of shots but didn't, hopeless really!

Shugborough Hall - Great Haywood Staffordshire

Image
These photographs are taken at Shugborough Hall near Great Haywood in Staffordshire. The Hall is well worth a visit as it tells the story of the owners, the Anson Family.  In particular it tells the life of the brothers George Anson and Thomas Anson .  George was a key figure in the birth of a professional Royal Navy and he became First Lord of The Admiralty.  While he was exploring the world Thomas lived at Shugborough and used his brother's income to remodel the house. The Hall was famous in the 20th century as the home of Patrick Lichfield and it has a great display about Lichfield and his photographic career. Shugborough is owned by the National Trust and you need to check the website to see when and how it is open during the Covid 19 pandemic.
