While I was out scoping a location for photographing a car, I grabbed a few quick snaps of these odd items out in the freezing conditions.
With this one, the 35mm F1.2 7Artisans manual lens, you can have both. Wide-open, it delivers stunning artifacts and artistic effects. Very light and versatile (and not expensive), it can do almost everything. Just avoid close-ups at F1.2 - that is, when despair could set in because the lens would not focus. Used this way intentionally, however, one can produce beautiful impressionist vistas. Shot taken using a 16mm macro extension tube; four LED spotlights, edited in macOS Mojave and in Luminar.
Children of Laos. While this photo was taken in full color, I edited it to reflect the drab existence of these children on the shores of the Mekong River in Laos. The look of despair on their faces is so apparent. We crossed the river from Chiang Rai, Thailand, to spend an hour or two in their country doing what tourists do. Our tour guide graciously spent her time making sure these children had food

After a few days of rain and grey skies, this morning saw a break in the weather in Lyme Regis. On the way back to the car noticed this reflection and couldn't resist that combination of orange and blue
Tried my hand at a high-contrast, leathery-skin kind of edit.

Tower Hamlets Cemetery (often called Bow Cemetery by locals) was opened in 1841, one of seven large cemeteries opened in London to accommodate the growth of the city in the industrial revolution that had left local church graveyards overcrowded. Walter Gray from Alfred Street was the first person buried. By 1889 nearly a quarter of a million people were buried here, many in “public” graves for people who could not afford to buy a plot – allegedly these could be up to 40 feet deep. The cemetery became neglected and was bombed several times in World War II. It was finally closed for burials in 1966. Eventually a group of concerned locals formed the Friends of Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, which has managed the cemetery for Tower Hamlets Borough Council since 1990. It is now largely given over to nature, with the many gravestones in various states of repair and collapse. A very atmospheric place.
