Ropley Station on the Watercress Line.

The B/W here is fully justified by the time-honoured theme and context. A super shot indeed, Howard!

Thanks, but mainly by virtue of the lens it was taken through. The Canon 50mm f0.95 lens was, in its day, equivalent to driving a Bugatti Veyron (impressive, but using a sledgehammer to crack a nut). Unusably soft at its obscene maximum aperture, the lens is so heavy that the camera flops forward when hanging on its strap, and so wide that 30% of the viewfinder image is occluded. But stopped down (as it was here) it was as sharp as any good 50mm lens.

Phenomenal shot! Stay well!
