Around the Abbey with my family...

With Kirkstall Abbey being so close to our house, it is nearly always the first place that we take people when they come to visit and Friday with my Grandparents was no exception.

I always love looking around the Abbey with different people and different cameras as I always look at it a little bit differently and using my phone camera (and Vignette app) I got to pick up a lot more details of the abbey than I would have done with my Lomography cameras.
Luckily the weather held out for us whilst we were walking around (you can see we're all wearing coats in case of rain lol) and we got to see the Abbey in its full glory!


p.s. I kind of love the over the top light leaks that this app gives - I never really get those with my fim cameras and I'd probably not be entirely thrilled if I did - but it definitely has a certain charm when used with these photos. I'm having far too much fun with this app!

  2. I love these. Really love them. Every time I look at your blog, I feel two things- 1. I want to go take photos of everything (which isn't that unusual really) and 2. I really miss England, and all of the beautiful old buildings there (which isn't that unusual either). But your blog compounds it. I love your work, and these, though they are in a very different medium, are fun, and nicely done. Thanks for sharing them!

  7. These are stunning. I love pictures like these and tried to take many like them. (Mine are not nearly as good as yours, and you are using an app!) I was in the UK exactly two years ago this month, and I miss it so much (especially today). We toured a lot of abbey ruins--it was a study abroad trip in literature--but we did not visit Kirkstall. My husband and I will have to check it out when we go (in about a year and a half *fingers crossed*)!! Just beautiful!
