I think she was in for 3 hours, or there abouts.
First 7 were definitely mf, can't remember if the last 3 with the 70-200 were af or mf.

Cheers Haris, The light was awful, apart from a half an hour near the end.
So i struggled to get the exposures I wanted, the way I wanted them.

What hast been said already,
Although for me no 4 is my stand out pick.
Followed closely by 5.
Great shooting.

Nice one,
No such luck over here, just rain.

What a set.
Stark, brutal, minimalist, depressing, pick your poison.
But oh so interesting.
I've poured more than my fair share of concrete down through the years.
1,4,6,8,10,11,12 ,13 and 14. With 1 and 12 being my top picks, plenty of wonky paving to keep my eyes interested in 12 and the staining and your composition on 1 is spot on.
Personally I've always hated concrete as a finished medium, but times are moving as these also show, great set.
Looking forward to the next set.
