A Late summer collection
1st December 2007 to 29th February 2008

I almost missed the entire summer of photography, due mainly to an ailing car and being pre-occupied by problems at home. However I managed to start getting out in February and will post whatever I can here, before the summer ends at the end of Feb ruary. Best wishes Steve Bromley
