It was a beautiful sunny day yesterday, but there was a very cold breeze so I went to Preston Docks to take a few photographs with my new prime lens.
This dock is now a marina with sea access so there are a quite a few yachts and boats moored. It was very cold so I didn't spend too long there but here is one sample shot from my trip.
In the download the church spires and towers in the town centre and the football stadium can be seen.

I've not been going out John and it looks just as bad with winds today.

And with what camera? Your lens - camera combination seems really sharp and high resolution.

It was an Olympus EM10 with a Panasonic 20mm lens set at F8 in Aperture mode.
M43 camera have a 2x crop factor so 20mm equates to 40mm in 35mm terms.
