Guys

Thanks for the comments. #1 is from a project I've been doing around Camden Town. The railway lines around Camden are some of the oldest in London (the UK?) and are an important part of our industrial heritage. I assume that the capacity was reduced in the 1960s ab although the actual line beds were removed, the original victorian bridges were left. To my eye they have a beauty of their own although they attract all sorts of grafitti, some of it amusing, some of it bizzare, some of it downright offensive but all of it highly colourful.

What can I say about the 24/2.8? The best lens produced by Leica?

Number 2 is my favorite. I like the unusual subject matter and the clarity and sharpness are wonderful.

Thanks, Caryl. That's the SAA90 for you, the second best Leica lens? I actually had to take about 30 pictures of the turbines before they just about lined up in a row!

Louis, I remember once waiting for goats to raise their heads at the same time. They had,but their heads were a bit low. Instead of taking the shot and waiting, I just waited. Never did get that shot. Goats are not that predictableLOL
