My Dad was over from Canada and we spent the morning shooting around Croxden Abbey (Consecrated in 1253 and active till Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1538). Its always nice to get time to photograph with my dad and we had a really good day...

My Uncle asked me to have a look at a old photo he had. It was on glass and lots of areas were flaking off. I have not really done much work like this but I enjoyed it and dont think it came out too bad. I wanted to keep it looking authentic, so did not want to take it too far.
