Pic(s) you took today - an open thread

Set out for a walk with the dog and its mad what you come across.
Set out with D700 in Monochrome and
35-70 2.8
I just forget sometimes the pleasing images this combo always gives.

This was a chap at the bottom of our street just getting the car out for a wash

Then we bumped into Frank, a friend since she was a puppy, he is struggling to run now. Look at the state of that dicky bow- the scruffy mutt!

Those boxer dogs are all mad. We've had a couple, still got 2 now. Proper bonkers. :)
 
A very dreary walk in Castle Rising today. We had the whole castle to ourselves - for a good hour - and it was nice to explore, but such a dull day there was none of the beautiful light which streams in through the windows of the castle. I lifted the camera up to my eye a couple of times when inside, but when I noticed auto ISO metering the scene at 12800 didn't bother pressing the shutter :LOL:

Hi, on my way to a motorcycle show I saw the election posters. We even have a Baldy-Man here. The problem: no party will have a majority, so we shall have the
old actors in new roles in a coalition ... :

Nice, like the emptiness. Tells me it was a very cold day!

It was fairly busy, I had to work at to make it look desolate. :)
 
Shot some film today on N 90s.

So no pictures.

I kept "chimping" as well. LOL
 
One things for sure mate, your people pictures illustrate just how addicted people are to their phones (assuming he's doing that)

Thanks matey, I haven't a clue what he was doing (not that I'm interested) as his hands were out of view to me, I just saw an opportunity for a snap. :)

A few snaps from today's dog walk - decided on theme of close ups, sadly only after I got there already but fortunate as 28-105 has rudimentary close up facility.

Heading home after conducting an office fire drill at South Mimms office (I live a rock n roll existence :ROFLMAO: )
It was so cloudy and dull, so I dropped the SS to 1/8 to get a vehicle blur and low ISO without filters.
Hit and miss, but this one I quite liked.
