I've got a new series of books out later in the year. Even I am impressed by the quality. All credit to the photographers!

The modern pics look like they've been enhanced a bit like the one here
Or were they taken with a "proper" hdr camera?

Th moving car would have looked weird if triple shot - I admit I thought they were HDR myself.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Is it a trick of the camera, but is the old George and Dragon on a different angle than the new one. Has it ever been rebuilt?.

Come yourself,
Don't send Jesus,
