The clunky coin-operated telescope – a staple of the seaside resort in the UK (and probably all over the world – there were loads of them dotted around when I visited New York for instance, although were fancy binocular variants). They always seem awkward to use. Big heavy lumps of metal and glass on stiff supports with a limited range of movement. The optics are often full of debris, giving a nostalgic, cataract-ridden view of whatever you manage to point them towards. They probably promise more than they tend to deliver, but I’m happy they’re there, especially when they look beautiful against the blue summer sky as this one does.
Say what can you see?
Out on the beach and the seas
And up in the skies

Excellent photo with beautiful colors from the old Sensia. The vignetting of the Sure Shot Supreme’s lens really enhances the blues in the sky and draws your focus right to the bright yellow telescope. This is one of my favorites of your recent work, for sure!

Thanks P. The vignetting really works well for some shots. Plus blue and yellow always tend to look good together I think.
