Ball Street Bridge area of Sheffield, Sunday 1st June 2008

The rain poured down on this Sunday morning, so I was surprised to see about eight members waiting patiently under umbrellas when I arrived. The rain stopped (more or less) after a while, and we enjoyed seeing this part of Sheffield's industrial history. Janet Thorpe's granddaughter Georgia enjoyed the morning, learning a lot about photography from Janet as we walked round.
