This is a regular series of blogs about photographs of the same place taken years apart. The first of the posts in this series was of a council building in Manchester. I always thought I should give then and now photographs a go. However what I have started to notice is that I have been doing Then and Now photographs unintentionally over the years and have been taking photographs of the same thing or place from the same view o ar perspective years apart. Now this has come to my attention I have started to intentionally take photographs of the same place.
Over the years I have taken this view at Bristol Airport quite a few times, both unintentionally and now intentionally.
I was flying to Dublin in October 2024, so I took my usual photograph.
Not quite the same view as there was scaffolding in the way and it was raining.
I was flying to Glasgow in November 2023, so I took my usual photograph.
I was flying to Amsterdam in October 2023 so I took a photograph from the window next to the balcony at the departures lounge. The balcony itself was closed, it was rather foggy.
When travelling from Bristol Airport in August 2023 I took this photograph from the balcony at the departures lounge.
When I was at Bristol Airport on the 14th November 2022, I intentionally took a photograph from the same vantage point.
I had taken a similar picture in February 2017.
I took this view of Bristol Airport from the departures lounge on an early morning in August 2016.
