I got the 15mm and the black MX as part of a large job lot of stuff quite some time ago. I think I could have covered the costs by selling the 15mm alone. It was the sort of deal that made ebay so much fun originally.

I love these and the fact that you "broke" the rules, clearly deliberately, I like. I find the half-hearted breaking of rules is what does not work (e.g., slightly converging verticals; either get them straight or make them dramatic!). I especially like No 1 with its great use of shadow. 3, 4, 5 and 10 are really great too. Less keen on 11 and 12 (11 seems to busy to me compared to the others).
Nevertheless, a nice set of images.

I, too, like both of them. I must get some ND grads... ~sigh~

I'll admit I enjoy a day on my own to take photos. I'm not then fretting that my better half is getting bored. I can spend a remarkably long time in a nice historic church, especially if I have a tripod and my shift lens, and/or the pinhole, and/or the 5x4 (and on occasions all three). The 5x4 takes a while just to put together and set-up. If I take more than three photos with it, I've been profligate! One dream is to be able to spend some time with the 5x4 in Durham Cathedral... One of the best trips I did when I was a student in Durham was when the photo soc organised an visit to the upper levels of the Cathedral. I'd been before, but the difference was our guide left us to it at each location so we had time to set-up tripods and all that. Bliss.
