Very nice town that... shouldn't say "town" actually, it's Britain's smallest city isn't it, due to the cathedral.

Only been there once, last summer - with someone who occasionally pops up on HL as it happens, in various guises :von: ... lives in Wiltshire (last I heard). The only other person I've ever known who listens to Cindytalk (apart from Cinder himself), bit of a gypsy lifestyle-wise you could say...

Hmmmmm ... do I know you from somewhere perchance, "E"? :innocent:

You evidently haven't been to Aviemore! :lol:

(the environs are lovely but the town's a bit of a dump)

I didn't recognise that, but I'm guessing from the content it's St George's Cross?

Nice! You really can't beat b&w for buildings and monuments, can you.

I've got a friend coming over from Manchester to see the Daniel Johnston exhibition next week and have convinced her to model (no, not that sort :roll:) for my Holga. Will be hitting some tight-in portraits, some multi-exposure and more. Should be fun (or a disaster :lol:)

Good luck with that! Actually, scratch that - you have a rare talent, man ... I've no doubt the results will be first class. :notworthy:

Yeah, I guess most buildings don't actually have much colour to them, so the monochrome pics help show the form of the architecture. There are exceptions though ... I was really pleased with the golden hue that comes through on this pic I took of Leeds Town Hall:

Motherwell also has a cathedral, it's still a town. It takes real talent to photograph an almost monochrome subject in colour, don't get too smug.

not aimed at you, you provided a colour example - exception to the rule? I think so :D
