I like 2, 7 and 11. I also like the mono 10, but perhaps with a crop to remove the dish and its bracket.

The appearance of the cloth makes the tools in the first more interesting for me, and no-one could claim that the tools in the second are boring.

In the late afternoon yesterday, it was getting rather cool, so I moved my chair into my tiny porch to get the warmth of the evening sun. This series was captured there, using a K-70 and DA 35 f/2.4:

There are lots of unsung heroes out there, the careworkers in the nursing homes coping with no protective gear whilst caring for the old and very vulnerable. The behind the scenes workers on TV radio and Newspapers. The bin men. The shelf fillers. The lorry drivers. The sewage workers. The bus drivers. The teachers and childcare workers looking after the kids of essential workers. Those trying to help the homeless and the addicted. The farmers and their pickers trying to get food to you. Just to name a few.
All deserve recognition.
Of course, all those you have included are essential and deserving of recognition, and I have heard each of those groups praised and thanked in the media, but never those I listed above. That is why I wondered whether anyone else had heard them being mentioned.There are lots of unsung heroes out there, the careworkers in the nursing homes coping with no protective gear whilst caring for the old and very vulnerable.

A few days ago John commented, "We can all feel better connected to the rest of humanity with technology to help. This forum included! I'd miss you guys without it!" +1 from me.
But I was wondering if anyone has ever witnessed, in the recent news programmes or newspapers during the last few weeks, any mention of praise and thanks for all those working 24/7 in the power supply, Internet and telecoms industries, to keep all this stuff running smoothly for everyone, as I haven't?

That's a coincidence - I found one in a drawer at the weekend, looks similar except it's a silver colour rather than orange. Mine would work only with the winder, so I'm waiting for a new LiR 2032 battery to come via ebay.

That's just the way this forum displays them. Copy the image into any application in which the horizontal or vertical view can be presented on screen at the same size.

Not too keen on 4 and 7 but the others are very good. 4 seems a rather messy composition and 7 looks too burnt out in the feathers. My favourites are 2 and 6.
