I had the cold flat light too Irv, not the best of outdoor lighting this week. Still I now have an entry posted to the gallery, but I can't find the entries thread anywhere. I'm sure I saw that Dave had posted it, but where has it gone?

Just so you can see, this is it:

It was not what I wanted to be honest, but with only five minutes between errands to get the shots I am still quite pleased with it.

And this is my reject:

These are both shots of what is probably the only modern bit of architecture in our medieval town. And it is tucked away between two streets and behind the medical labs.

My wrist is giving me bother at the moment due to too much photography apparently, so I didn't think I'd make it this week.

I managed this one tho

Modern shoes
