Shimmery Sluice

This is a lane way near me - Sheils Lane in Carlton.

The yellow flood lighting lit up the water in the drain... 120 years ago this would have been shit and piss and other household waste.

Shot with a Canon 40D on my new Canon 50mm f1.4 lens... I'm constantly amazed by its flexibility and sharpness, and the shallow depth it allows. This shot is not possible with most other lenses out there.

1/80" f1.4 ISO1000
