Great light in England this morning

A rare chance to stop down the Pentax SMC 28/2.8 on the NEX-3. On the walk to the shops this morning, I noticed a Edward Hopper quality to the light, so I hung around a bit and this guy duly obliged.

The first one is fantastic!

Thanks, I removed the second one as it was distracting.

I took a lot of shots but this one was the best, with the guy in the window to add some pathos 😉 He was watching me intently, so I just waited until he got bored.

The 28/2 renders a muddy, paint-like quality in colour (even on film) which is rubbish for most things but it suits the light on the Bath stone in this case.

Terrific picture BTW! 🙂

Its always sunny in Bath , Peter 🙂

The stone gives it a lift although plays havoc with the metering at times.
Dull up here on the west coast too ...you in Manc , Peter ?
