As I said in the previous post, I went out on Friday to Bussey’s Loke, near Hempnall in Norfolk, to take some photos of a burned-out Transit Van in a field.

I don’t know why the van was there, whether it was stolen (or not), why it was burned out, how long it’s been there, or anything else about it. But it does make for some interesting photos.

I’ve plonked the ones I’m pleased with in the Norfolk category, but I’m particularly pleased (for no good, or explainable reason) with this one of the engine block and this one of the door and interior of the van.

A few days ago, a friend made me aware of a burned-out van out in the wilds of Norfolk (and fortuitously close to where I’m currently working) which was of interest to me for some photo ideas.

I was going to go over there this weekend, but changed plans this morning, loaded the camera into the car along with the satnav (in order to find the bloody place at all) and took the opportunity while it was there – the local council usually being vaguely efficient when it comes to vehicle removal.

The road that it’s on is – interesting, I think it’s fair to say. Distinctly rural, single-track, and covered in mud for the first mile, deep ditches on either side – I’m just glad I wasn’t going with the initial evening/night-shots plan. (Now I know where it is, I might give that a go next week if it’s still there)

All told, I’m quite pleased with the photos I’ve managed to get – or at least, I’m pleased with how they looked through the lens, and on the screen on the back of the camera. I’ll only get the chance to see them on the big monitor tonight, and see what I think then.

I’ll post some of them up here when I’ve checked them out, always assuming they’ve worked at all.

Over the last year or so, I’ve been developing an idea for a coherent photographic project, which also has some potential for commercial sales. (Although of course we’ll just have to see whether or not that actually happens – but it’s got the potential for sure)

Up until this weekend, the project was just an idea – but now it’s started off, and I’m really pleased with the first results. There’s a long way to go with it – I think I won’t really be anywhere close to finishing it until this time next year, and possibly even longer, but at the same time I’ll be able to start looking at the commercial aspects well before the project is completed.

But still, it feels good to have at least started.
