One of the first outings for my new Nikon D750 camera was the weekend’s Morecambe 1940’s Revival. Not on the same scale as some of the other summer festival events perhaps, but nonetheless a charming event with some great atmospheric music and dance. This was the event’s second year in the town and it is establishing itself as one not to be missed. Adding to the flavour was a selection of vintage vehicles on display around Poulton Square. Here’s a few of my snaps…

All ages enjoy the 40’s music.

 

Reminiscent of post war Britain, the flags were out around Poulton Square to add to the atmosphere.
