Thanks, Ben! I used a Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 135mm f/3.5, another plentiful and cheap Communist lens, made in East Germany in the '60's. It's small enough to fit in my little saddle bag.

Tried a similar pic on you earlier in this thread. This one might be even more "newborn religious". I blame the autumn.

Can't resist a nice background whenever I come across one. Much to the annoyance of mrs non-fixie ("no, not again!"). This is the old train station of Ospedaletti, on the Ligurian coast:

And I also stumbled across this on a another wall in east London. Not strictly matching the thread criteria, as its a photograph of an artsy impression of a bike with a motor, but I thought it was an impressive effort using a spray can, and I didn't know where else to put it, so thought I'd bend the rules a little.
