To me it seems like a surreal religious scene - the cross, someone crouching to pray, the wood and the windows seem like a confessional box to me, man with his eyes closed. Love it!

Still trying to get the hang of the old Nikon F3 I acquired recently.

What would Badgers do?
I like it too. I took a couple of similar shots today while at my girlfriend's parents place, which is quite literally in the middle of nowhere.mauvais said:

It's boring but I like it:
Carry on being boring mauvais. That is superb. It is a classic Autumn British countryside picture.

Thanks Stanley. As I understand it, from something my gran told me when I was a kid, there was some sort of tax based on the number of windows you had, so people just bricked their windows up rather than pay it.

Whether that building's old enough to count, or whether someone just decided to brick it up later, no idea.

Oooh. Pretty.
Nice little private hangout above the Rio Darro.
Big holiday week in Spain. Fiesta next weekend. Loads of stag parties and hen nights in town. This was brill - an on the spot theatre performance for the bride to be. They put on a good half hour show. All about how not to become a down trodden housewife from what I could tell

Looks really nice Stanley. Better than horrible old Birkenhead anyhow 
Here are some pictures from the scenic bit. I've gone a bit mad in the post-processing, unusually for me, because I wanted these to look like they do.

What is that dark rectangle over the middle of the pictures all about? Is it meant to be some arty effect? How did you do it? They are out of focus too, but I suppose that is also deliberate for some reason.

It will be better on film.

It's grim up north (London)
A bit of an experiment, doing some astro-photograpy with my 15mm for which fisheyes were originally designed.
Four f/3.2, thirty-second exposures at ISO 1600 stacked in Photoshop (cheap way round having no tracking motor on the tripod).
Suburban phone box - a 35mm f/2 lens arrived in the post this afternoon, so I had to see how far I could push it hand held (1/20 sec, f/2, ISO 1600)

Never tried posting photos on here before, so I am unsure as how to get the actual image to display. Can anyone help an old fool, please? Will post the links in the meantime.
Comments from the pro's are welcome. My skin is thick .... The first one of the man I like, the second one of the lady doing her prayer rounds too, although I feel the one pole behind her should have been repeated ahead of her, or it should be cropped out?

The Healing power of hugging trees following a massive disagrement that violated me to my being i needed to fuck off and hug some trees it worked i calmed down a lot i still feel rage but not as much as i did following the vile assult upon me..
I love the second one especially, enumbers (the gate). Just, how the hell does one get rid of those grey / over exposed / glary skies one always have in the background? I mean, I know you can compose your shot to exclude them, but on the camera itself. What settings does one play with when taking these photies from a shaded area TOWARDS a well lit area and get some sort of harmony between the two? Really peeves me off when I take one like this, a good - no, great, moody, brooding shot - and the sky comes out all pale and shitty. Or does one simply learn to live with them as the cam does not capture exactly as the eye sees?
PS: Hope u r feeling better. Nature should have done it, as she normally does. After our 2 weeks in blue skies and clean air as opposed to Shanghai's grey, polluted skies, I think I know how you may feel after a walk in the countryside.
