And yet Oxford is still there.

These are a very nice selection.  I've told you I hate you, haven't I?

I like the photos quite a bit, but I sure wouldn't have wanted to be 
there -
(where there is fiere, there is smoke)
there is only one shot that I can't figure out - (I'm sure you know 
which one)

My fave is the last one - the silhouette

Oh, right. It's lit coal inside a wire enclosure, stands about three
feet tall, this is a sectional close-up, you're looking at about a 2

Bingo, I kinda thought she was. I took several looks to  be sure.

Glad to know my built-in gender differentiation still  works.

It's an optional extra with us males ;-)

Cotty,
Facinating photos.  There is a kind of hard edge to them and danger
from the fire.  Looks positively barbaric and druid like.  It's hard
to believe they do this in the city center.
Regards,  Bob S.

Thanks Bob. It was actually very peaceful - almost serene. Live music
drifted across the crowds, who were very quiet, and it reminded me of
what a town in Middle Earth might look like ;-)

Subject: GESO - Oxford On Fire

As promised, a short gallery of pics from a street celebration of one
thousand years of Oxford. 'Luminox' consisted of a variety of fire
sculptures and displays located down one of the busiest thoroughfares of
the city, given over for the event.

All pics here shot with EOS 1DmarkII and Pentax SMC-A*85mm f1.4 either
400 ISO and wide open, or 1000 ISO and stopped down a bit.



First real pics in a long time, so don't assimilate me all at once.
