[LRflex] Re: B&W of Stonehenge, & Salisbury Cathedral monochromes

Very nice series Eric, sharp and fine grained.
I can't find Ilford film here any longer - the good old times of FP4 and 
HP4 ...

The effect with the red layer in PS is dramatic - not in the French 
sense - and I like it a lot. Nice rendition, really.

I had already had a careful look at some of the other BWs -  my only 
regret from abroad is that you didn't have a wider lense as what you are 
showing us is a very sedutive invitation to discovering the whole premises.

Congratulations indeed.
Yours
