Malvern has a number of Gas Lamps dotted around - the Author C.S. Lewis is believed to have got the inspiration for the Gas Lamp in Narnia from the book "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" when walking home from the Pub one night. Anyway, here are a couple of shots of them....

#2 is superb John, shows the light off very well, the dappled light is excellent and I like the presentation and the toning, plus you've no distractions etc.

With #1, did you use a polarizing filter ? there's lots of reflections of the location inc a white door !!

Thanks Chris - No polariser but you're right there are too many reflections, perhaps I'll pop my Lee kit into the bag next time I'm out
