Evening draws in on the Macclesfield Canal
Subdued tones look better in the Lightbox (press the Z key).
The car appears to be an Austin A30 or Austin A35 from the 1950s.

Victoria Pit Moorings on the Macclesfield Canal
Ilford HP5 film. Recovered from the cutting room floor where it languished after initial rejection. The negative had slight camera shake, a 3.20 degree tilt and aggressive grain. Processing it was a balancing act between digital rotation and grain reduction both of which softened the image further, and sharpening before the final JPEG. (Not sure it was worth it!)
