Easy Rider...

On the 23rd April I captured a number of colour images about halfway between Greenfield and Holmfirth. Around this point the road between these two towns is very straight and is about as bleak and desolate as the moor gets.
The views looking down the road remind me of those classic late 60s and early 70s american road movies, such as "Easy Rider" and "Duel".




I think that the bleakness of the moors, at this point, it is captured in this image taken about two hundred yards off the road. Don't be fooled by the grass in the foreground - it hides hollows and bog land.:
