Haven't posted much lately,
Had a couple of hours to spare while in Dublin last night, so here are a few that caught my eye

Handheld, wandered around trying to get a better angle on this, but I just couldnt get one, this was the best gap in the rooftops.

I love numbers 1 and 3. You didn't waste that couple of hours, Derek.
Regards,
Mike

Great little selection - Number 2 is superb, great use of the maximum aperture - nailing the focus and creating beautiful OOF highlights - better bigger too

I've got some bad new for you though Derek - your style is absolutely perfect for a recently released 50mm, can you guess the one I mean : : : Start Saving

Cheers guys,
The rain didn't help much last night, other than to help reflect the light.
I am loving the fast sharp glass that's available now, compared to what I used to use when I started out.

Oh John, your 50mm would be something else, do you do a payment plan

No 3 for me - well spotted/ taken etc! Also like the green oof lights in the 2nd one as they 'home in' to a focus; are they flare?

Cheers Andy,
The green light that is in focus is 1 of 20, so the line of green oof balls is a line of green lights not flare, flair maybe but not flare

Cheers for that Bill,
As ever appreciated
