Nikkor-H Auto 300mm f/4.5

A brave individual campaign for peace which I stumbled upon whilst trialling a Nikkor-H Auto 300mm f/4.5 lens made circa 1971. Inexplicably I had just about every camera setting wrong. ISO was far too low; shutter speed was ridiculously slow; aperture was much too small. I look back on this as something of a missed opportunity. It could have been so much better. I remain puzzled as to why the peace campaign should have taken place outside the gates of Lacock Abbey on that day, yet many interesting things seem to happen there.

One of the few things I've learned in my life is that Ambrose Bierce was right: “Peace in international affairs: a period of cheating between periods of fighting”.

A fine portrait, unposed but elegant.

Some would say that Ambrose Bierce's observation was cynical, but all the evidence points to a realistic analysis on his part. Thank you for your compliment; greatly appreciated.
