Beautiful.
Thanks!

Seems like most of the GMG folks aren't much into photography, what with Baklavaboy's wide-angle lens being drowned under CDs...

You're filling up this thread quite nicely, Karlo. I admit I haven't been as active here lately, I'll work on getting some more on here.

Sarge's beautiful window dressings may present a long term threat of making my contributions to the thread be less than 50% of the pictures!  >:(  8)

Your photos prove that.

I wonder what Coleridge thought of the work of his contemporary John Constable - specifically the cloud studies..

It's strange, I was obsessed with photography from about 2010-13, but I guess I'm a one-obsession at a time kinda guy.  Still, I don't want to let the team down ;D  Here are a few more from me.

Nothing like Sarge's, and not very arty, but hope you guys enjoy them.  (and yeah, that's my son in the bucket)
It's all good...

Wonderful pictures!
The street shot is particularly well composed, and the one with the dog & owner is another great capture. Not to say there's anything wrong with the composition, but a square crop just above the leash hand might work, too.
Those looks in the last one are wonderful, and the wet hair is perfect for b&w.
Re: "like Sarge's" or "arty" - I would like a bit more meat to these descriptions, and not just because many of Sarge's pictures posted in this thread are very much 'arty' in the positive sense, at least to me anyway.
