I have been in the 'desert' for awhile now, not having shot anything. Although today it finally rained, and Friedlander arrived on my doormat.

In other words, I got inspired again!

Interesting take on this statue Paul, although I find my eye drawn to one or two focal points in the foreground...

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Good to hear you're 'back in the saddle' Paul. It's no fun when inspiration doesn't come calling for a while

Thanks, guys.

Kris, her nipples are very small, in scale with me at least, the rest of her ain't!

Good to see you again Paul!

Not a bad photo either Sky is possibly a little dull, the joys of living in the UK eh? She does indeed have very strange nipples. And chin.

Thanks, guys.
Gareth, I really should try and take a different picture showing how large she really is, she is a very very large and buxom lady.
With this shot though I was interested in how the convex shape at the top of the building drew analogy with her bulbous parts.

Cheers all.
