Castlefield Basin



My initial visit to Manchester for research was around the Castlefield Basin area. This was a decision made for two reasons:
1. Sebald mentions the area around Great Bridgewater Street
2. This is the only part of Manchester Ship Canal that I was familiar with having photographed it for another project.

It's safe to say I did not really know what I was looking for just that I wanted the initial experience of walking and exploring that area. Following instincts and recording images and feelings that arose whilst around the area.

great stuff vic, I like the way the colours are kind of bled out, making it seem a little already like a memory trace...
