Barry Island project completed ……..

It was horribly wet and windy in South Wales this morning, ideal conditions for a photoshoot to add to my Barry Island portfolio. I wanted some high contrast black and white pictures taken on a bleak winter's day to contrast with my colour photographs captured in August. A few brave soles had ventured out today but the throngs of people who had packed the area in the summer were notably absent. The Pleasure Park has now closed adding to the sense of dejection of what was once a thriving holiday destination for the coach and train loads of workers from the Welsh Valleys. Truly a Faded Glory.
