Shadow Sunday: Edgeley Bowling Club
This week's shadows are from the bowling club at Alexandra Park, Edgeley, Stockport. The park has three greens. These are all flat greens as opposed the crown greens you see in some other places. If you want any information on the game you could do worse than start with good old wikipedia.
You can see a low-res version of the original photograph from which this was cropped on Geograph.

So very different from the bowling here in the states...so British...and eloquently proper!
ReplyDeleteI like it! This form of bowling is much more civilised than the one I posted about :)
ReplyDeleteVery serene scene. Good sharp shadows on a very pleasant sunny day. Bowling greens look just like velvet - hats off the the greensmen.
ReplyDeleteLater afternoon shot I imagine made by folk in the afternoon of their lives.

What a nice mix of shadows you captured ... your shot makes me want to play a game or two. It looks very calm. I wonder what those standing people are discussing?
ReplyDeleteWhat FUN ;--)
ReplyDeleteReminds me of games my father's family used to play at family picnics when we were kids. Love the bench in the previous post too!
Hugs and blessings,
