8. Thank you. Ok, I will have to take a look.

That building site was controversial. The city tore down some historic buildings, and sold the lot to two developers of, in my opinion a bit shady. So they started a building, dug a big hole, then the funding ran out. for the longest time we had a gaping hole that the city finally filled in. Many of us wanted the space for a multi purpose cyovered farmers market. But that didn't pan out. So when they sold the land they approved a multi use building. I believe this building was designed by a woman. Though it is lovely, I miss the open space, and the light of the afternoon sun.

I must say it is lovely,

Looks like you are having fun with your new lens.

10. Thanks. I went out again today.

The sky was flat and that made nailing focus a bit harder, but just a couple spoiled pictures is not too bad. I zone focused on a few people shots, and they came out OK. Practice
