Reading is the largest settlement in, and the county town of, the Royal County of Berkshire. The confluence of the Kennet and the Thames is in Reading. Reading is the principal regional and commercial centre of the Thames Valley. The population of Reading is 174,200, although the number in the greater urban area which not only comprises the borough but also analogous districts outside the borough boundary is 233,000.

Fleet Street at its apogee. Letterpress and half-tones. Colour register (could do better). Hot lead and thunderous printing presses.

Nikon D2Xs with a Nikkor-P 105mm f/2.5 lens on a Nikon TC-16A teleconverter.

Photographed in the garden of Avebury Manor, Wiltshire, using a Nikon D2Xs with a Nikon TC-16A teleconverter and a Nikkor-H Auto 300mm f/4.5 lens from around 1971. The TC-16A is compatible with only a small number of cameras and although Nikon doesn’t officially recognise the D2X as one of them, it nevertheless operates successfully. The Nikkor-H has been factory AI converted, making a functional set of instruments never really envisaged to harmonise. The TC-16A adds 1.6x to the lens it is mated with, so in this case the focal length was 480mm.
