We are now in a developing second phase of coronavirus (Nov 2020), and journeys to Carmarthen or other towns remain infrequent (as of 9 Nov Wales is out of a fortnight lockdown - England entered lockdown on 5 November for four weeks). Since the March shut-down for Covid I have taken the opportunity to upload shots from before September 2010. In-between contemporary shots, I am uploading photos pre-SPNC, from the days of my old Olympus E-1/E-330. Not many are any good but the exercise has given me an opportunity to look back. One thing that has struck me is how limiting the effect of noise was when trying to take (very early) street shots at ISO 800 in relatively dark conditions. I still used zoom lenses quite a lot until SPNC and am glad to have been educated in the use of a wider angle lens.
