Hi all,

I rarely post a thread on here unless I'm significantly motivated and highly inspired by folks on here to do so. So I take my hat off to LittleOz for giving me a kick up the rear, without knowing it. I do regularly explore but as you may know post very seldomly.

This is the second visit to the magnificent towers (first was a couple of years ago)

I won't bore anyone to death with the history as it has been repeated on her ample if times and is widely available. I had literally 25 mins in and out before I was late for a training course I had to go to. Apologies as I know there needs to be more than a few photos to share to make a thread worth while, however I suppose it's better than nothing.

Here goes

And here is a hand full from 2 years back to boost the thread a bit more... Taken with an Olympus OM10 and XP2 film

Many thanks for looking :)
 
Great to see a report from you. You got some crazy angles there which make it look so different. And you managed to convey the scale of the towers in those first two, so much better than I could manage. The film shots are ace - I'm with Krela in loving the first of those.
 
:eek: Catmandoo! wow im surprised, nice to see a post from you buddy! Gotta admit blown many shots out the water with these, seriously post more or do you need Mcbird to also kick your backside into gear! :)
