I've got nothing to say but it's OK.

Nikon D40 + Nikkor 18-70mm lens. The D40 was one of Nikon's early digital SLR cameras and was made from 2006 - 2010. The sensor is a CCD type made by Sony. You can't get this type now and to my eye it has a nice warm character that CMOS sensors lack. The nearest comparison I can draw is my preference for Fuji Reala film over the cheaper colour negative types in the 1990s. But Reala was expensive and I had other demands on my cash at the time. Happily, by way of compensation, the D40 can now be bought quite cheaply. Mine had 566 shutter actuations and came boxed as new for under £60. It weighs about 18 ounces. It's a lot of fun for little money.

Pelican crossing on a relief road that divides a whole street community, Steps lead down to it on both sides - not too good for the old and infirm. For years the greater part of the community was separated from its local pub by the new road. Later the pub was closed, which might or might not have happened anyway. Our dependence on motorised transport has turned us into vandals. Pelican crossings originated in the UK and were introduced in 1969.
