Quarry Bank Mill, Sunday 14th May 2006

This was the annual outing of Bakewell Photographic Circle, to which members of Sheffield Photographic Society are invited. The day was a little dull, but better than expected in this very wet spring we are having. Inside the buildings was very dark, so it was a big challenge to make full use of the photographic permits that the National Trust had very reluctantly let us have.
