Ode to the Zoom

All of a sudden I find I have organised myself into a fairly active few days leading into the weekend and so with a cold wind holding sway outside I thought I'd rest up a fraction and try a harmless "still life". In this genre my ever reliable mainstays have always been: grog, more grog, glasses of grog, bottles of grog, wire, rust, shiny metal .... and camera gear. As I hadn't done camera gear for a bit I hoped you might allow me, in view of yesterdays heroic attempt, today's (ahem) "creation", Ode to the Zoom.
