A few from Albania

[Mad Dave]

Was out there on a photography assignment for work, but managed to take an hour out to wander around the city of Durres. So here are a couple Oh, and a shot of some Roma travelling folk who were overjoyed at my wanting to take their photo.

There's no option for average?

first one is great, but perhaps would have benefited from a bit more DOF?

[Mad Dave]

Fair point my fishy friend - I should probably modify that

Not sure what you mean? It was shot at f22, focussed hyperfocally so SHOULD be crisp from front to back. Admittedly the chains aren't pinsharp at their closest point though. I shot a couple, maybe I optimised a poor shot

well i guess that's the problem with having something in the foreground coming right up to the lens. still a cracking pic imho

Cheers. Sadly I couldn't get a clear shot without the railings without completely losing all the foreground, so I decided to make the railings a feature, rather than an obstacle.
