More lamposts
Today there was a heavy fog all over Edinburgh-as there was yesterday, and is forecast again for tomorrow. I thought I might get some atmospheric shots, but I don't think there was enough tonal variation, and the light was very flat. I converted most of today's photos to black and white-well those I didn't delete!
Anyway, here are some lamps at Duddingston.
I quite like this silhouette:
This one lacks sharpness:
And this is my favourite-and it's not a black and white conversion. I like that it looks black and white until you focus on the leaves! I'm not sure whether a different crop might be better though.

Barter Books....
....is probably the biggest secondhand bookshop in Britain. It is in the lovely market town of Alnwick in north east England. We went there last Sunday, and I was playing around with my new (to me) f1.7 50mm manual focus prime lens. Now this is so different to my usual autofocus zoom lens, and I am struggling to use it well.
I need to practise lots!!
Anyway, here are some photos of the bookshop-most have been deleted!!

Loch Ard
Last Sunday we got up early and drove up to the Trossachs. Loch Ard is a photograper's dream. The Loch has the most amazing reflective qualities. The mist was down thick over the loch when we arrived, and I was able to take some atmospheric photos. But even in the thick mist the loch still reflects. This photo looks more like a photo of a snow scene, but if you look at the fence protruding into the water you will be able to see the reflection in the water.
And what a difference an hour makes-same fence, slightly different angle:
