Hull Fair

Slightly off topic but for those of you who don't live in Hull it is Hull Fair Week.

Hull Fair is an annual 8 day event in October which is more than 700 years old and is the largest travelling fair in Europe.

I'm lucky to live close by so love to go with my camera and get some shots.

I went early on Sunday when the fair was closed. I have never been to the fair when it's closed and it was obviously a completely different atmosphere. Very eerie and creepy! The weather was typical Hull Fair weather as we locals call it, windy wet and cold. The fairground was completly deserted when I went apart from crows. 

I got soaked through taking the photos and quickly left when one of the rides started moving on its own!
