Thanks Paul! I like the perspective you captured, the wide-angle really accentuates that. A little grittiness with noise could go good with those subjects. I love architecture too but have not put much attention to it yet. Out here where I am I get more ancient ruins than industrial buildings.

Alas, whiskey is a little past my skill level and wine never comes in a bag (unless it is a paper bag ). I'll start querying my friends and see if anyone has one lying around!
Have you thought using a bean bag to steady the camera? Fits easy in a small backpack and not too heavy. I use a Crown Royal whiskey bag full coffee beans. Put them in a plastic bag inside the CR bag. Cheap and effective, plus if camping the coffee is close at hand.
