New Project 52 for 2024

Again very nice. Did you crop the second one? It looks like it was taken with a lens with a larger focal distance than the first. Do you plan to embark into another Project 52?
 
Thank you, Brat, for the observations. Same lens for both (20mm) but I probably moved around a little bit between the 2 shots (can't remember). No cropping -- although I did consider it. I was not concentrating very much in regard to composition and how things were aligned... I was just trying to quickly set-up the tripod before another quick/light rain shower came through! I keep saying to myself... "One of these days I will take my time... and do it right." So, I suppose the good thing is... I can always look forward to "one of those days" sometime in the future! Yes, I think I would like to "embark" on another Project 52 -- but not on this site. I will keep my eyes peeled... when you initiate a new thread for 2025, I will likely respond in the affirmative. Thank-you (again) for the 2024 invitation. It has been enjoyable and has provided some needed motivation to get out and shoot. Always fun to do so... along with the PP afterwards.

Thank you John for your answer. I plan to continue to have a Project 52 on DP-Review, and really wish you will join me.

On another matter, I got the same 20mm as you today. I went with it inside the Château de Versailles, and enjoyed it a lot. Now I have to processthe resulting zillion pictures. One of them will probably be the picture of this week.
 
Week 47

To test an AF-S NIKKOR 20 mm 1.8G ED wide-angle lens I had just bought second-hand (under the influence of 1971_M5, by the way), I went to the Château de Versailles.

This is the famous Galerie des Glaces. Even on a Friday in November, it is not easy to take a photo there without visitors. They do, however, have the advantage of giving the scale.
