Couple outside Woodes very pleasant (and down-to-earth and real) café on Bristol's Park Street >>> watching a FATman!  I was surprised they noticed me, because I was photographing Woodes's frontage as a whole and was quite far off.  Even with my habitual 300mm telephoto and its x6 magnification, they only take up about 10% of the frame – that this picture is at all usable is a tribute to both to the quality of the lens and (at 1/105) its stabilisation, and the X-T2's 24MP too.

Maybe on a mundane morning they were intrigued by a distant, overweight man, who has seen better days and who was artfully dressed in a dirty old coat and the odd sort of hat that the oily drivers of grimy steam locomotives might favour … but then Bristol can be like that, thankfully.  Meaning a counterculture?  Yes, that's right, but I never mind queuing at a counter if there's the prospect of getting fed.
