David,

The St Stephen's Cathedral is amazing. I love the beautiful blue sky too.

Mocha,

I just love seeing all of those beautiful flowers in your countryside. The first picture is really good, with the structure seen in the distance. It's nice to see the sunset too. You must have had a long walk. How many miles did you hike that day?

OMG!

The kid's dead on the sidewalk and people just sit there like nothing happened?

Oh, the horror of it all!

😉

Hi davidwien, Thank You.

I live in the High Peak, Derbyshire and have travelled down to Cornwall over the past week, I've read that due to the wet spring and the fantastic Sun we are having at the moment Cornwall is seeing exceptional amounts of wildflowers for this time of year.

Hi Digirame, Thank You.

The structure is an old Tin Mine, part of Cornwalls past and many of these are scattered about the County. We're staying close to the coast at the moment so it was a four mile stroll for us according to Google. 😃

Steve,

Thanks for replying. Often children might find waiting for the planes boring, so I would imagine the child was just playing. Of course, I'm not sure what he was doing...maybe looking at ants on the sidewalk or something.

Had a tree come down in a tornado this spring.

I wondered what it would look like in black and white.

Looks like something out of a horror movie.

The second picture is cropped. I thought the pattern looked kind of cool in an abstract kind of way.

Hi Digirame,

Love the Air Show especially photo seven with the smoke trails and photo nine being Illuminated by the Sun

@stevet1 Love them! That just one of the reasons I still love to shoot with film (B/W) The lack of color adds a different mood to a scene.

Steve,

It's hard for me to like B&W photography. I've taken them in color and converted them and I always like color better. It may be also with all the cloudy and rainy weather that we have in Oregon, many things are often B&W naturally and the B&W reminds me of our cold, wet and cloudy weather.

Do you have a photo of the whole tree that has come down? What other damage did the tornado do?

Thanks Mocha. This last day of the air show was so different with the clouds. It made me appreciate more the sunny weather we had on the previous Saturday.

I also thought you all might like to see those that cannot afford the tickets (or choose to not pay). At least they got to have some views of the planes. The view of the planes was pretty good too but would have been better with sunshine & blue sky.
