We spent a few days in Zurich on our way home.
Wandering around town led to a random selection of images...

What this guy is doing in the heart of capitalism I'm not sure...though he did spend years in exile in Switzerland before catching a train back to Russia for a bit of revolution...

And something a bit more seasonal...

And new...

Lots of Lions...

A bit less warlike...

And this one looks like he has a dental issue ... or maybe he ate the guys wallet...

This last shot involves a technique I've been starting to play around with. Very long exposure (in this case about 4-1/2 minutes). The water turns a lovely glassy texture, the details seem more intense and anything (or body) moving through the image disapears so you get a slightly post Neutron Bomb effect...
74.8s, at f/32 || E.Comp:-2 / 6 || 24mm || WB: AUTO 0. || ISO: 200 || Tone: || Sharp: || Camera: NIKON D3on: 2014:10:29 07:06:54
On that classical note I'll leave you for today.
