AGS East Lancs show 2007

I was certainly grabbed by the ghosties I think that photo deserves an award. Not sure what for, but there's something about it. Isn't that Wilberforce on the right?

Good morning all,
Many thanks to Diane and John for their wonderful photos of the East Lancashire Show.  It is always difficult having to switch venues for these type of events but we were very pleased with our new hall in sunny Bacup (though the lighting could have been improved a little)..... the constant stream of visitors and the feedback we received from exhibitors and public alike was very gratifying. Congratulations to Carol Kellett and her well-drilled team on staging another highly successful event.
I'm afraid my photographic contributions will now pale into insignificance alongside the aforementioned (could I borrow your tripod at the next show please John...the difference is very discernible, especially in such difficult lighting conditions), but Maggie did request an image of John's beautiful Trillium so, in for a penny...in for a euro?

[ranunculus]

Well, that's a good start....three images and not one of them featuring the Trillium....here we go again....

Getting better...this posting lark is coming back to me after a prolonged absence due to advanced senility and creeping inertia. A few more from East Lancs 2007.

...And now the dregs from the bottom of East Lancs image file for 2007.

...And I am CERTAINLY not referring to the featured exhibitors, their exhibits or the tremendous plants....many thanks to you all for your wonderful contribution to Bacup 2007.

Thank You very much for posting the pics. It gives us the chance to see the event even though we did not make it there.

Kind regards
Joakim

Great pictures Cliff. You don't need my tripod with a hand as steady as yours. I was warned about the effects of sex, drink, drugs and rock n roll but I suppose having to use a tripod in one's dotage isn't too high a price to pay.

[ranunculus]

Exactly the reason why I now need to borrow your tripod John!

I missed out on the drugs though as I was always too inebriated in the squat I shared with eleven stunning and free-thinking Swedish lady naturists (and their teenage daughters).

Do you remember Fantasy Island?

Thanks for the kind comments....

....And Mr Forrest..quite uncannily I also captured 'the Bacup spectre' as he tried to spook Tim Lever into parting with a pot of Ourisia for less than the asking price.

Looks suspiciously like that nice Mr Rogerson to me!!!!
