I’ve let my lighter side win me over yet once more.

Back in the Eighties I was on a visit to London. I was on my way to visit “Grays of Westminster” For those that don’t know It’s a Nikon only camera shop. On my way there, my way was blocked by police making a human cordon for a Miners demo march. I mingled with all the press photographers  raised my Nikon FM2 shouted “oi ” and this Policeman turned around and looked at me as if to say “I got your number sonny Jim!” However what makes the shot for me is where he has is hands.

As I walked around the house one evening this past week, I saw the setting sun shining brightly on the leaves of this small tree.  As my friend Gary says “right time, right place”.
