Bath this weekend...

[thatone1967]

The Mrs is taking me to Bath for the weekend...
She brought me an EOS300D for xmas, which promptly broke on Xmas day( I wont go into details, but if anyone wants to know, there's a thread on here)...

Anyway, at it's effectively my Birthday weekend, it's all about me, so I want to take a few piccies, I have had very limited use of the camera, so it will probably be a massive learning curve for me.
I had a tripod, a remote control, and an 18-55 lens, and would love to get into long night exposures.
Hoping to get to the Clifton Suspension Bridge, can anyone suggest other locations that may be worth a look?

Bath Half Marathon on Sunday, so be prepared for road closures around the centre and surrounding areas.

I suppose that'll provide you with something to take pictures of

Not the answer I was hoping for!

I'm sure you realise that the Clifton Suspension Bridge isn't in Bath but just wanted to make sure...

I've been to Bath many times, never really taken a photo I liked. Converting what you see with your eyes into something decent through the lens can be remarkably hard I find.

I've taken a couple with the Holga I can just about live with.

Don't forget to get a picture of Gay Street!
