The Limbo Connection's photos with the keyword: Mayther

My 2010 photograph of this lady emerging from the Wild Cafe in Bath has now been cropped square and rendered in black-and-white. It’s not necessarily better like that, just different. Mayther was a boutique stationery shop in nearby Milsom Street. The Bath branch of Mayther closed in 2021. The Cheltenham shop followed soon after. In a world of austerity and high rental costs, not to mention Covid, who can indulge themselves in posh stationery? Nikon D50 with an AF Zoom-Nikkor 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6G lens at 66mm.

A good deal depends on photo editing, which generally improves as new products are released. What you can't achieve using one editing program you can often accomplish with another. I have not the faintest idea why this is so. Ipernity used to provide a free version of picmonkey which I enjoyed using for its effects. Since its removal I have used another editor freely offered elsewhere when all else has failed. This photo from 2010 was only ever a JPG and the kit used - secondhand and outdated even then - was extremely basic by current standards. I never thought such detail could be recovered, especially the cafe interior. Old Owl has advised caution over deleting one's photographs. Pay heed, I say.
