Lacock Abbey, Wiltshire. Nikon D700. Nikkor 70-210mm f/4-5.6 AF lens at 210mm and f/11. I gave up carrying a heavy 70-210mm f/2.8 lens and (after a period of reflection) settled on the lightweight and ancient Nikkor 70-210mm f/4-5.6 AF lens instead. It does however need to be stopped down quite a bit from its widest aperture to get decent clarity.

An Aldi Supermarket lorry in a queue. Without the tree in the foreground, this picture would simply depict a boring lorry with an over-dependence on the colour red and a crass slogan which is practically meaningless. I salute the tree. Nikon D2Xs and Nikkor 70-210mm f/4-5.6 AF lens.

I processed a photograph of practically no merit to simulate a shadowy, faded-wall, mutton-chops look worthy of a Dickens novel. This happened more-or-less by accident. I don't have access to an app called Victorian Mutton Chops Overcrowded Dark Brown Furniture Look. I just moved the sliders around a bit. It really is that random and haphazard - as you will have guessed already.
