Another fine set in the characteristic "LennyBloke style". I like em all.

Playing around with the FA77 + tubes again, trying to see how well they can isolate single leaves. Bright sun. All hand held, trying to keep gently waving ivy in focus. 1-2 and 3-4 are pairs - same leaves from different angles.

Autumn evening, bit of a nip in the air, dampness and a hint of candle smell, winding down after a busy day.
Or perhaps I'm reading to much into it...

Now, if the orange candle were in the centre it would link up nicely with the sun in the picture below...
I do like silhouettes and this is a fine example. Can't understand why some people think there must always be some detail in shadows.

A beautifully understated, atmospheric and peaceful picture. The reflections seem to draw the eye into the scene and the green at the water's edge subtly underlines the main subject.
Had to look up where it is on the Wey. Interesting that I'd never heard of Newark Priory but it's only 10 miles as the crow flies from where I grew up. It shows how narrow a younster's horizons can be!

Thanks folks. Been using the FA77 + tube with other flowers while the sun has been out today. Might post some when time permits.

All the others in the garden are over, but this has just started flowering half hidden in an awkward corner. The last of 2019 or the first of 2020 (and blame it on climate change)?
K3 + FA77 + tube and my flexible friend, a Benbo Trekker tripod. Then had to change to Irix 150mm macro when light drizzle turned to heavy rain - pity the FA77 and tubes aren't WR.
