Chimney Pots and a Bland Sky

Chimney Pots against a bland sky

Not the most inspiring photo to share, but it fills a day.

3 World Cup Things

Brasil try to kick lumps out of the the Germans "early doors", but Germany reply in emphatic style

BBC pundits seem to think it was Brasil being dreadful rather than Germany being brilliant. I go for the latter.

The fat lady is warming up, with only 3 games to go (football cliché there)

Great angles. Perfect in B&W. So Germany vs. Argentina -- Old World vs New World?

Very nicely done. Works very well in b&w though I am not keen on monochrome. Re my yesterday's shot during the procession, the Sacrament is taken to a separate chapel and the church is open for people to admire. Not that you don't see the younger generation going into church with short skirts.

I love a good chimney shot! I feel sorry for Brasil having to appear for another game - and potentially more humiliation from a talented Dutch team!

@judithg thanks judith, the 3rd place play off will be a bit of a 'friendly' match, I think the dutch players will already be on the beach wherever rich footballers go on the beach

Ah reminds me of childhood - mind you the smogs were not so great till the clean air act came in - how the trees grew after that in the chimney ridden north - still love them tho.
