Lady Godiva

It was difficult on the thumbnail to tell this was a statue so I wondered if this was a new style for you I like the juxtaposition of the jolly Santa behind.

Every time I went across the bridge on the train in my early years I used to wonder who burnt the island? Still do - any ideas?

Thanks

@pentaxuser There are a couple of possible explanations. The burning of fishermens' huts down in the docks but more probable is the naming of the town after a local called Burnet.....Burnet's Land. Nobody knows the origin. There's a lot of history attached to the town, which was formally a Royal Burgh. Whenever I'm at a loose end I somehow end up in Burntisland wandering the streets with a camera. The town has recently fallen on hard times. As a child in the 50's and 60's a trip to Burntisland for the Burntisland Games, the Lido or the Art Deco Cinema was a treat. Games Day still attracts the crowds but the lido and cinema are gone unfortunately.

Thanks. Nothing to do with the origins of BurntIsland but Stanley Baxter told one of his own tales on Radio 4 as part of the Stanley Baxter Playhouse a few years ago that he called "The Fife Circle"

It was worth a listen in my opinion. Here it is if its of interest:

@pentaxuser Thanks for the link. I did listen to the programme. Stanley Baxter has long been a bit of a comedy icon up here in Scotland. I still remember The Stanley Baxter Show on tele throughout the 60's.

It's hilarious this has like 5x the views any other picture does...similar to any other picture of the female form.

Anyway, my compliments once again on what you can do with HP5+. I love that film but can't quite get what you do out of it.

@Colin Corneau Thanks Colin. I find HP5 works well in HC110 or ID 11.
