Sensational view, Alan!
Thanks! Here's the other side, this one uncorrected for perspective distortion:

And the adjacent empty hall:

The grille there on the bottom is only about two feet deep, while the floor goes on for about 100 yards! A very imposing cavernous building, even without the enormous replica Royal Barge.

Alan

Thanks for the bonus pics, Alan! I must make a note to go there when I am in Barcelona.

Nex-7 + Heliar 15

Jim, your Rokkor and your Vivitar shots are typical examples of the best sort of Schemellian art! The chair shot in particular had me shakIng my head in wonderment. Great stuff!

Philber,
You are too kind
Jim

Yes, that chair is really nice, but don't underestimate that piggy!

The Paramount

Jim, 1st 2 are terrific ...

Alan, I really like that 2nd view ...

Good series, mcbroomf! What lens?

In the States there is a abbreviation for everything and everybody seems to know what they mean,
But which library is that nice photo of BPL. Let me take a wild guess, British Public Library in?

nice greenery, here its freezing cold and there are no signs of winter.

@mcbroomf
i like the last one

Thanks Michiel ... BPL = Boston Public Library. It's the Bates Hall in the original wing designed by McKim. Check out bpl.org

Paramount and Crosses were taken with a Canon 85L on a newly acquired Deo-Tech EF-Nex adapter, and the other 2 with a ZF 25/2.8 distagon and a Kipon T/S adapter.

A couple more in the McKim building
