Evening Angel

Angel of the North at Gateshead. I'm still using the K10 regularly despite having also got the new K5. Here the K10 is coupled to the DA*16-50mm lens.

Love the effect achieved on the Statue of Rust, well captured. Although she does appear to be leaning back a little.

I realise that Paul. I wanted the angle to be tilted and think now I should have leaned the angel back even more.
