Harry Potter

Jackets for Daniel Radcliffe
Our daughter treated my wife and me to a day out, recently. We went to see the sets on which the Harry Potter films were made. A couple of my friends had been and had posted pictures on Facebook, so I knew we were in for a good day. I wasn't disappointed. Sophie, Kath and I gleefully embarrassed ourselves by posing on the Knightbus, and in the Ford Anglia, whilst screaming and pulling appropriately terrified looking faces. I also looked out  for the chance to take a few arty shots. Repeating patterns always make a good photo, I think, so when I spotted a rack of clothes, each identical except that each was a little more 'worn' and damaged than the last, I took a photo. I set the camera's aperture to its widest setting in order to blur the background, and took three shots. I think this is the best of them.
