Aug 19, 2023. The road to enlightenment


For this special 'World Photograph Day' I will share this scene from my childhood to the present day. It is our local 'Hartshead Pike', a tower that I have seen from one of my house windows for much of my life.
This is a high, almost desolate spot where one can feel a special connection with the land and history. In these days of uncertainly and climate catastrophes it is nice to know that this seems to stand forever and can even be seen from flying aircraft coming in to land at Manchester Airport. The very long 30 second exposure emphasises the passage of time here.
The present tower, built in 1863 by John Eaton near the site of an earlier one which was used as a signalling station, commemorates the wedding of the Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra of Denmark. Standing at 940ft (286m) ASL it is one of our highest landmarks in this area.

Thanks for the detailed information about the filter. I never knew how people got those soft clouds without things getting too bright. I usually don't have the patience for a tri-pod, but I'm really glad other people do.
