I ventured out for the first time in a while on Monday and nearly suffered a most embarrassing “locked in” situation in the process.

This industrial estate may be one of the oldest in the city. There were no signs of horrible tilt panel monstrosities, just classic post war industrial goodness.

Reckless Abandon

After a very disenchanting evening of false starts and no gos we ran across this abandoned section of a factory. The funny thing is we have passed it on many occasions without a second glance.

It was not a great success. While we initially thought the background windows provided interest they instead washed out the action being illuminated by the flashes. Far to much ambient for this sort of thing, as evident by Ms Poppins head ghosting.
In fact the most entertaining part of the evening was during another setup in which I was responsible for throwing an arc of water OVER Ms Poppins. After a handful of dud frames (and a somewhat wet Poppins) how was I to resist unloading a whole bucket of water onto her and finishing the job?
