I saw this metal chimney in the distance not long after the previous shot once I got off the tube in central London, and it cemented my take on the theme of this challenge.

This was the shot that inspired my interpretation of this theme, and something I just stumbled across as I was heading to the tube station. I'm glad I always carry my camera around my neck.

As the colder weather sets in we all have to turn on the heating more, despite the costs. I like the contrast of the the smoke/steam against the blue.

Another monthly photography challenge set. I try to avoid the obvious but it was hard to even find the typical wintery shots here. I was struggling but settled on a series of steam spouts and chimneys.

Yeah, I think it was something like that. Mine extended but then wouldn't retract properly nor extended properly again after that. Fingers-crossed it doesn't happen to you!

I picked one up second hand when I first got my GX7 (also secondhand) but there was a mechanical failure and the lens wouldn't open or close properly so I returned it. I love the idea of the small form factor though so want to try and pick another one up. I'm also looking at the Lumix 12-32mm.

This shot—from one of my short photo walks at the start of the month—is what inspired this theme for me. I do wish I was able to find/take more shots for this set that I was satisfied with.

Another set for the monthly photography challenges between me and a few friends. We decided on a "free-for-all" for November so I chose my own theme of looking through the gaps between/within buildings.
