Break Time

Another shot from last weeks photoshoot in the Victorian Underground Reservoir at Papplewick Pumping Station , Nottingham.

This is one of the reenactors posing as a 1950's workman taking a tea break.

Works well in mono

Effective portrait. It sounds like the reenactment was a wonderful experience with so many photographic opportunities.

The cap, the coat and the tea mugs - all from the '50s!

[Dione Giorgio]

Great mono shot, Phil. Made me think of WWII when people spent long hours in the war shelters during continues raids from enemy warplanes. I wasn't yet born by I have seen many pictures of those times and heard many accounts of those terrible days.

[Carole Sandford]

Especially as at that time colour wouldn’t have been a regular thing. It’s such a great portrait!
