Flight in the Snow by Ric Morris at the Church Barn

Join Ric Morris for a winter’s selection of aerial photography of Shrewsbury and the south Shropshire countryside. The show features a set of recently restored aerial images captured from a couple of hot air balloon flights in December 2000 and 2001, on both occasions with snow on the ground, providing an unusual view of the local landscape in the depths of winter.

Taking off from The Quarry, under the capable piloting of national ballooning champion Ian Bridge, we take our time exploring detailed aerial views of the county town, as it was almost quarter of a century ago.  We’ll drift south along the general line of the A49 and see the rumpled eastern aspect of the Long Mynd before crossing the Stretton Hills and heading east to a gentle landing in open country in a far-flung location.
