Blackpool Pleasure Beach - 27 August

Over bank holiday weekend we went to stay at my Auntie Diane and Uncle Mark's house in Lancashire. We travelled up on the Saturday afternoon, after Dad had finished playing golf and got there in time for dinner, where Darren, Fiona and Iris also joined us.

Most of the photographs I took on Sunday at Blackpool Pleasure Beach were of everyone that went, but I did manage to get a few relevant ones whilst having a very busy day.

Photograph taken from 'Flying machines'

I took this photograph whilst waiting for the ride, 'Flying machines', to start. I like this photograph as there is harmony between the white aeroplanes (the ride), the clouds and the white structures around the place. As it is quite light, the red "engines" on the back of the carriage in front offers a sharp injection of vibrant colour. As this ride doesn't begin at ground level, you can see more of the park in the distance.

On the beach front

After having a busy and fun day at the Pleasure Beach, we bought some rock and walked along the promenade for a little while. This is a photograph of (left to right), Uncle Mark, myself, Alfie, Richard, Mum, Dad, Auntie Diane and Darren. It was just reaching dusk when this photograph was taken and so the colours of the sky look calming to me. I like this soft colour palette that contains light blue, white and lemon. As the sky behind us is very light, there is contrast between our dark clothes and the sky.
