The Bell and Clock Tower, Lacock Abbey

02 Nov 2018 74
ISO 200. F/11. 1/250th. AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 at 40mm. Nikon D700. Pretty much ideal conditions for a photograph.

Benjamin Carter's Sphinx

02 Nov 2018 59
Nikon D700 and Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 AF lens. Wonderful light on a clear early November afternoon. I went equipped with a set of three lenses released to coincide with Nikon's introduction of automatic focus (not counting the two specialist lenses made a bit earlier specifically for the F3 camera). All of them must be 30 years old plus. Here I used the 24mm which is simply the optics of the 24mm AI repeated in AF mechanics. Likewise the 70-210mm f/4 which had an earlier iteration as a manual focus zoom in the 'E' series. And finally the 35-70mm f/2.8 which I guess has had the hardest life of the three but keeps turning in a stellar performance.

Bowden Park Gates

02 Nov 2018 405
Bowden Hill rises steeply away from the river Avon at Lacock. Behind these gates is the Bowden Park estate and a country house (Grade I listed) which is not visible from the road. It was built in 1796. The estate is concealed by the slope of the hill and surrounding woodland. Nikon D700 with an AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-210mm f/4 lens at its longest.

Towers and Chimneys

02 Nov 2018 87
Nikon D700 + AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 lens at 40mm, f/11. I cropped out a good deal of foreground crud. I could have fitted the 24mm lens and gone closer, but the picture would have turned out different, and I rather like the perspective from this position.
