Well captured, Julian. A wonderful almost minimalist image.

That's a very worthwhile project, Antonio. I look forward to seeing more of it. I always think that it's very important to document the changes that happen around us. They can happen all too quickly these days.

I rather like that 'bleach by-pass' look although the technique is a new one on me. It looks like something from one of the weird Lomography film stocks, Metropolis perhaps. Because I'm curious about names I was going to ask who J. S. Cooper was but a Google search came up with the answer. He...

I like the way that the trees seem to be in mourning. Cemeteries are such photogenic places.

I would prefer to describe the subject as quirky 😆 It's the sort of scene I'm always on the lookout for but don't always have the courage to attempt to photograph.

This really is a wonderful series! You certainly have a way of capturing these scenes in a way that that is instantly recognisible as your own style.

......well one of then is anyway. Fujifilm X100s / Converted to monochrome and drastically cropped in post

An interesting experiment, Gianluca. The first and the last work well for me although my own taste is for blacker black and whiter whites. Converting a colour image to monochrome in post works well for the right subjects. It's something I often do with digital to save faffing around changing the...

There's something about the unpretentious simplicity of these, especially the second one, that really appeals to me. A sweltering day, nobody out - I can almost feel the perspiration trickling down my spine. Well done Gianluca.

Thanks very much Gary. The sense of being there is what I hoped to achieve. I'm pleased it worked for you

Thanks Gary. In the past I've had boating holidays on the Thames and the Norfolk Broads. Great fun.

Thanks Beth. The last one is my favourite. As you say it doesn't look like what you'd expect in London, more like some backwater of Bruges or somewhere like that. I rather suspect the deckchairs are there mainly for show, perhaps even an attempt at some some sort of arty 'installation'. Either...

Nothing special here. No groundbreaking photography, just some snaps recording a pleasant day walking a small part of the Grand Union Canal in North London. We started in Little Venice which is all very twee....... But instead of following the well trodden tourist trial which takes you...

I think the first one's best. What a cheeky looking fellow that is!

OK, here goes. So this is in Greenwich. The original one, now in London but once in the county of Kent. It is the birthplace of point zero of the meridian, and the standard measure of time computed by stellar observation by the observatory here. Both were vital to the Royal Navy in the days of...
