Here's one last shot taken with the Tamron AF 11-18mm - a shot of Blackpool's North Pier, taken from about five inches above the decking.
Oh, and by the time this gets (automatically) posted I'll be in London. I'm going abroad for a week - I won't tell you where yet - so should have some new/different material to post.

I really like the depth in this image. Makes me feel like I am traveling down the Pier waiting to see what is at the end. You are making it very tempting to get a super wide-angle lens.
Simply perfect shot. This one is my favorite from this series. The texture of the wood is stunning and the lines lead my view to the center. Regards.

David, this is a good photo, I love the detail int he background. However, I would prefer to see a color version. The floor just seems a little common, or perhaps the contrast is just a bit too aggressive.

Love the viewpoint, the depth of field, the leading lines and the texture.

I think this was in a movie I watched recently. I forget what it was called... something about a young guy who was in jail for murder as a child and got out... and at the end you see him walking down this I think.....?
Pretty good movie.
Looks nice and sharp... I would have thought it was higher than f/8. Lookin good!

The road goes ever on and on. I hope you're coming to the Chicago area.
Love the perspective.

Ok I lied, I said "In Defence Of The Sea" was my favourite from this series and then a saw this. I love the view point, I like crisp detail and contrast, this has all of that and more. Very well done indeed!

Snowman: I may be wrong, but I think that the pier in Boy A was Brighton pier.
