Excellent work, as usual, from you - I particularly like the London series.

But no Scotland?    :-[ :-[ ;D

sunny - I have since cleaned the camera sensor ...


not sunny - slow exposure while holding an umbrella ... missed focus on the near red flowers


Thanks for the comments !

The 'More of winchester cathedral' has a fantastic framing and light, also the people are rendred nicely! Super capture!

How did you pull that off, I mean gear wise, tripod?

Thank Eric,

The shot is handheld, I brought the 24-85 zoom, and this shot is with VR on, which you can see does a remarkable job if you give it time to do it's thing.

Indeed! 5.6 ;) Sharp. Crisp. You must be at a zoom setting without distortion to pull this off, around 35-50mm?
