<\/a><\/p>\nThis view is of a way-marker for the Todmorden Moor footpath. For most of this walk over the moor I used a fish-eye lens for the photography. The original of this image I found quite pleasing except for the curvature of the post caused by the lens – as you can see on the right. I was quite surprised to find a facility in Photoshop Elements that enabled me to straighten the post – this makes for a more pleasing image.<\/p>\n
On this part of the moors a new windfarm is being built. I was surprised that not only was it not fenced off, but a footpath runs straight through the windfarm. Access to get some eye-catching photos of the turbines was easy. There are several views in my panorama gallery<\/a> but this is my favourite:<\/p>\n There are even information boards here amongst the turbines:<\/p>\n Finally, on the walk back I took some views of the pylons towering across the moor:<\/p>\n The full set can be seen within my Panorama gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" During our visit to see our daughter (which I wrote about in the last post), we went for a walk over Todmorden moor: This view is of a way-marker for the Todmorden Moor footpath.

Although few remains are visible, some of the most noticeable artefacts are the sink-holes across the moor. The curvature of the horizon in this view is mostly caused by the fish-eye lens.<\/p>\n<\/a>This image (that I call “Power to the people”) has had most of the curvature corrected – in the original the pylon had quite a distinct bend – although some still remains, I could not correct it all. All the same I think this is a decent photograph.<\/p>\n
