I liked this scene in Winchester and found a seat opposite where I could take my time to get a shot on high-contrast mono, a picture effect on my camera I'd not tried before.

This was the best shot with it, the others being a bit too black.

Just had to double-check with Ray that it really is 1st January 2017 today. And I forgot the old Suffolk custom of first saying 'white rabbits' on the 1st of the month for good luck!!
Love the composition and processing Hazel. Well done. Happy New Year to you snd Ray!
