I like going to the observatory and watching the fireworks go off. The cat isn't a big fan though.
Yeah, most cats hate Observatories

This is a strange one, using both the grid and square marque tools in photoshop the centre building looks vertical, I rotated the image 2° CCW and it didn't appear to make any difference to the building although the grasses on the right did then look to be leaning to the left

There's obviously some distortion from the lens affecting the image too, evident from the chimneys on the building on the right, add to that the image being heavier on the right and also darker just adds more weight to the right hand side.

Here endeth my un-qualified analysis of this image in which I deduce.....there's nothing wrong with it, not going to win any prizes but well worth keeping

Doesn't the LX measure the light actually reaching the film?

With a 4 second exposure I'd have thought you'd have captured something even if only the halos from the street lights, unless you were using very slow film.

I'm ashamed to say the Litre bottle of Famous Grouse that was opened on Xmas Eve is almost gone

Time to stock up for New Years Eve

I've just watched Terminator 2 Judgement Day this evening and even though I have seen this film what must be a dozen times I'm sure I've just seen a Pentax Camera

So all you film buffs keep a look out, or if you've got it on DVD check it out now, the scene is where Arnie gets throw through a glass window by the liquid metal Terminator, and a passer by snaps away with what looks like a Z series camera

Not really, you have to start training for New Years Eve
