A strong documentary theme that works very well with great images in support.

Best regards

Riding for 46 years for me tomorrow. Also prefer older machines as Brunhilda (my R80RT) is 32 this April and I bought her new. She still pulls attention as she's as new and has 7K miles on the clock (being abroad means lack of UK mileage).

Chugga-boom (my W800 SE) was 5 in August and has an Australian twang to the exhaust. You keep going with what you feel is right for you. Wish I still had any of the Yam RD's I owned in the 70's!

A well photographed, detailed set David. No.12 is, imo, class photography. The glass pane distortion looks great.

..last skin in the thread.

Really good work Gareth. Exemplary use of foreground focal points.

Surprisingly quiet on the piers and up at St Hildas but very very busy in the town and streets.

A five pack of 120 film.

Maybe, just maybe I will shoot more film this year.

There's often bad ways to start a New Year, but to not start it at all through actions that could have been performed in a different or safer way leads others to ponder the whys and wherefores. There's never happiness in loss of life.

Hoping your New Year went well Gwyn. Ours was quiet and I didn't drink too much at all.

At Whitby yesterday for the last sunset of the year as seen from St Hilda's. Whitby was super busy as last year and we ended up parking on the extended car park areas behind the West Cliff. A great atmosphere around the streets with huge numbers of people out n about. I did wait until I was back home though before having a drink.

Twas a Russian who, through Pierre has just said

We all think we only have to be knocked a little bit off course and we’ve lost everything, but it’s only the start of something new and good. Where there is life, there is happiness.

It seems War & Peace is to about to take place in the Netherlands in just under two hours.......
