Struggling a bit for fresh content so I dug into the archive.
A selfie of me at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, waiting for the start of the "Derby" horse ride. A different take on the merry go round. The horses used to gallop and jump at quite a pace. Well it seemed fast to a young lad.
The girl over my left shoulder is my cousin Ann.
This was shot by my Dad on his Leica, probably using the Elmar 5cm f3.5 lens , which I adapt to my Sony Cameras.
I think I might be about 10 on this photo. Shot on a family get together at my Grandparents in Blackpool (they moved to Blackpool once my Grandad retired from his job in the Mill)
@carole_sandford I know, a tie for a visit to the fair. I've got some family photos where my dad / grandad / uncle are wearing ties on the beach ....and every other male appears to be doing so too !
@jackies365 aww thank you Jackie, I think the ride was stationary at this point, you had to pay in cash to a person who walked around the ride , before the ride started
@happypat thanks Pat, I assume the ride is still there, it was when we last visited , maybe 20 years ago :)
