So for three nights I wandered down to the local field where the fairground had come to visit – only to come away with no pictures at all. Night 1 I was too early, I wanted dusk images of the moving attractions, night 2 – a Friday night – the light was perfect but the rides were empty and stationary, same thing on Saturday night – does no one go to the fair these days. So I was stuck in Cranbrook with my tripod and a lovely clear evening sky… and the windmill.
