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

Super set of images Kris. Black and white is so much more suitable for this type of image than colour.

I would have walked right past everyone of those, excepte perhaps the arches and railings shot. Good stuff Kris.

Literally thousands of photographers did walk straight past the first two images at Focus. If I hadn't been worrying about my train I would have taken a few more.

Very n ice, Kris. I'm particularly partial to nos. 1 and 4. I'd have taken 4 (my sort of thing) but I'd never have even spotted the potential of 1.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Good set Kris. 1 and 4 are spot on... I like the orderly simplicity and mundane setting of no. 4 .

A slight crop from the top of no. 2 to remove the light strip at the edge of the frame might make the image even bolder.
